PREFACE 



As it is impossible to limit the purposes for which the language of 
Shakespeare may be studied, or to say that the time will not come, if it 
has not already, when his use of every part of speech, down to the hum- 
blest conjunction, will be criticised with as much nicety as has been 
bestowed upon Greek and Latin authors, it seems to me that, in the selec- 
tion of words to be recorded, no discretionary powers should be granted to 
the ' harmless drudge ' compiling a Concordance. Within a year or two a 
German scholar has published a pamphlet of some fifty pages on Shake- 
speare's use of the auxiliary verb to do, and Abbott's Grammar shows with 
what success the study of Shakespeare's language in its minutest particu- 
lars may be pursued. I have therefore cited in the following pages every 
word ia his Poems. 

I would not have it thought that any imperfection is hereby imputed to 
Mrs Clarke's invaluable Concordance of the Dramas. The bulk of that 
work was a sufficient bar to the plan I have been enabled to follow in the 
lesser task which was before me. 

Having adopted the rule of recording every word, I thought it a need- 
less expenditure of space to insert in every instance the entire line in 
which a word occurs. I have given the clause in which the word stands 
and the number of the line, and then, that nothing may be wanting to the 
convenience of the student, the Poems themselves are reprinted at the end. 
If in any case the citations appear meagre, the original is instantly ac- 
cessible. 

Compound words, such as seal-manual, are entered under each word ; but 
not compounds without a hyphen, such as eyelid; nor words not separated 
by a hyphen from their prefixes. 

Such words as 'stonished, 'mongst, etc. are given under their unabbreviated 
forms also. 

Where the same word has two or more meanings, such as lie, light, wish, 
etc., an Italic catchword indicates the change from one sense to another. 
I have not thus subdivided words when there were less than half a do^en 
instances of the word ; nor have I thought it necessary to indicate purely 

iii -f 



iv PREFACE 

grammatical distinctions. Such an attempt seems not properly to belong 
to a mere Verbal Index, and would, moreover, to be thorough, demand a 
familiarity with Shakespeare's use of language to which I can lay no claim. 

I have not placed under a separate catchword the third person singular 
of verbs, lest I should be introducing subdivisions that would not com- 
pensate for the confusion that might arise, especially where there is a 
difference of spelling ; and for the same reason I have not separated the 
singulars and plurals. 

Where and is used as a copula of two nouns, both nouns are given. 

I have followed the text of the Cambridge Edition, with the exception of 
some trifling deviations in punctuation. 

As the pages are stereotyped, corrections can be made at any time of mis- 
prints, against which it seems that no human vigilance can guard, and I 
shall be grateful to the kindness that will notify me of them. 

My special thanks are gladly given to Mr W. A. Wheeler, of The Boston 
Public Library, for the handsome way in which he placed at my disposal 
his MS. Concordance of these Poems. As my work was well advanced 
when his offer came, I have not availed myself of his kindness, yet it is 
none the less felt. The motto on the title-page is his witty suggestion.

A — So great a sum of sums 
A liquid prisoner 
unless thou get a son 
to wet a widow's eye. 
like a makeless wife 
so fair a house fall 
You had a father 
hut a little moment 
do not you a mightier way 
it is but as a tomb 
be term'd a poet's rage 
thee to a summer's day 
all too short a date 
A woman's face 
A woman's gentle heart 
A man in hue 

And for a woman wert thou 
Stirr'd by a painted beauty 
Making a couplement 
For at a frown 
After a thousand victories 
a journey in my head 
Intend a zealous 
Which, like a jewel hung 
many a thing I sought 
of many a vanished sight 
How many a holy 
A dearer birth than this 
Full many a glorious morning 
such a beauteous day 
such a salve can speak 
a lawful plea commence 
lives a separable spite 
As a decrepit father 
And by a part of all 
O absence, what a torment 
it is a greater grief 
to break a twofold truth 
A loss in love 
are at a mortal war 
A closet never pierced 
A quest of thoughts 
and heart a league is took 
is famish'd for a look 
doth share a part 
thievish for a prize 
he answers with a groan 
have full as deep a dye 
with a perpetual dullness 
But, like a sad slave 
So true a fool 
burthen of a former child 
with a backward look 
For such a time 
This thought is as a death 
shall beauty hold a plea 
no stronger than a flower 
desert a beggar born 
on a living brow 
To live a second life 
And him as for a map 
A crow that flies 
a pure unstained prime 
conquest of a wretch's knife 
As twixt a miser and his wealth 
clean starved for a look 
invention in a noted weed 
To take a new acquaintance 
grace a double majesty

Ji — travail of a worthier pen Snn 
knowing a better spirit doth use " 

I am a worthless boat " 

but a common grave " 

a limit past my praise " 

tender of a poet's debt " 

How far a modern quill " 

and bring a tomb " 

And such a counterpart " 
beauteous blessings add a curse " 

Above a mortal pitch " 

as a dream doth flatter " 

In sleep a king " 

I can set down a story " 

will be a gainer too " 

To set a form " 

of a conquer'd woe " 
a windy night a rainy morrow " 

out a purposed overthrow " 

a joy above the rest " 

I see a better state " 

O, what a happy title " 

Like a deceived husband " 

Which, like a canker " 

but in a kind of praise " 

O, what a mansion " 

finger of a throned queen " 

If like a lamb " 

How like a winter " 

'tis with so dull a cheer " 

Hath put a spirit " 

A third nor red nor white " 
A vengeful canker eat him up " 

be a satire to decay " 

outlive a gilded tomb " 

a scope to show her pride " 

and there appears a face " 

like a dial-hand " 

in a wondrous excellence " 

Even such a beauty " 

forfeit to a confined doom " 

a motley to the view " 

A god in love " 

my name receives a brand " 

like a willing patient " 

bad a perfect best " 

Love is a babe " 

found a kind of meetness " 

medicine a healthful state " 

you've pass'd a hell of time " 

And I, a tyrant " 

now becomes a fee " 

dressings of a former sight " 
Hence, thou suborn'd informer ! a 

true soul " 

with a bastard shame " 

with a false esteem " 

in a waste of shame " 

as a swallow'd bait " 
A bliss in proof, and proved, a very 

woe " 
Before a joy proposed, behind, a 

dream " 

a far more pleasing sound " 

never saw a goddess go " 

A thousand groans " 

A torment thrice threefold " 

And sue a friend " 

Ar»ong a number "

not so true as all men's 
Am of myself all tyrant 
When all my best 
thy worst all best exceeds 
all my vows are oaths 
And all my honest faith 
scythed all that youth begun 
Nor youth all quit 
In clamours of all size 
but where excess begs all 
stuck over all his face 
All aids, themselves 
but were all graced by him 
All kind of arguments 
All replication prompt 
Catching all passions 
gave him all my flower 
All my ofiences that abroad 
Lo, all these trophies 
Take all these similes 
And now, to tempt all 
Have emptied all their fountains 
pour your ocean all among 
your victory us all congest 
All vows and consecrations 
art all, and all things 
The aloes of all forces 
Now all these hearts 
All melting ; though our drops 
all strange forms receives 
O, all that borrow'd motion 
cures all disgrace in me 
Where all those pleasures 
All ignorant that soul that 
all in love forlorn 
all her pure protestings 
and all were jestings 
As passing all conceit 
and left her all alone 
All unseen 'gan passage find 
All is amiss 
All my merry jigs 
All my lady's love is lost 
Wrought all my loss 
All fears scorn I 
All help needing 
Plays not at all 
Flocks all sleeping 
All our pleasure known 
All our merry meetings 
All our evening sport 
All our love is lost 
cause of all my moan 
frame all thy ways 
all the joys in bed 
all the pleasures prove 
all the craggy mountains 
all with leaves of myrtle 
as all forlorn 
All thy friends are 
A. 1 thy fellow birds 
Grace in all simplicity

craft and perjury " 1517 

And little stars " 1525

gazing still " 1531 

And from her tongue " 1587 

And turn'd it thus " 1539 

so weary and so mild " 1542

On thee and thine " 1630

Shame and thriftless praise "28

And threescore year would make " 11 8 

Harsh, featureless, and rude " 11 10 

for her seal, and meant thereby " 11 13 

And see the brave day " 12 2 

And sable curls all silver'd o'er " 12 4 

And summer's green all girded up " 12 7 

White and bristly beard " 12 8 

Since sweets and beauties do " 12 11 

And die as fast as they see " 12 12 

And nothing 'gainst time's scythe " 12 13 

And your sweet semblance " 13 4 

And barren rage of death's eternal " 13 12 

And yet methinks I have " 14 2 

his thunder, rain, and wind " 14 6 

And, constant stars, in them I read " 14 10 
As truth and beauty shall together 

thrive " 14 11 

truth's and beauty's doom and date " 14 14 

Cheered and check'd even by " 15 6 

And wear their brave state " 15 8 

And all in war wfth Time " 15 13 

And fortify yourself in your decay " 16 3 

And many maiden gardens " 16 6 

And you must live, drawn " 16 14 

Which hides your life and shows not " 17 4 

And in fresh numbers " 17 6 

And your true rights " 17 11 

And stretched metre " 17 12 

live twice, in it and in my rhyme " 17 14 

lovely and more temperate " 18 2 

And summer's lease hath all " 18 4 

And often is his gold complexion " 18 6 

And every fair from fair " 18 7 

So long lives this, and this gives life " 18 14 

And make the earth devour " 19 2 

And burn the long-lived phrenix " 19 4 

Make glad and sorry seasons " 19 5 



And — And do whate'er thou wilt Son 
world and all her fading sweets 
men's eyes and women's souls 
And for a woman wert thou first 

created 
And by addition me of thee defeated 
love, and thy love's use 
And every fair with his fair 
with sun and moon, with earth and 

seas 
flowers, and all things rare 
And then believe me 
youth and thou are of one date 
And in mine own 
And dumb presages 
love, and look for recompense 
play'd the painter and hath stell'd 
And perspective it is best painters' 

art 
drawn thy shape and thine for me 
honour and proud titles 
And in themselves 
And all the rest forgot 
love and am beloved 
And puts apparel 
And keep my drooping eye-lids 
beauteous and her old face new 
For thee and for myself 
But day by night, and night by day " 
And each, though enemies 
And dost him grace 
And night doth nightly make 
fortune and men's eyes 
And trouble deaf heaven 
And look upon myself and curse 
this man's art and that man's scope " 
thee, and then my state 
And with old woes new wail 
And weep afresh 
And moan the expense 
And heavily from woe to woe 
restored and sorrows end 
And there reigns love and all love's " 
And all those friends " 

holy and obsequious " 

And thou, all they " 

And shalt by fortune " 

And though they be outstripp'd " 
died, and poets better prove " 

And from the forlorn world " 

And make me travel " 

wound and cures not " 

And they are rich and ransom all " 
thorns, and silver fountains mud " 
Clouds and eclipses stain both moon 

and sun " 

And loathsome canker " 

faults, and even I " 

And 'gainst myself " 

my love and hate " 

worth and truth " 

And by a part " 

And he that calls on thee " 

And what is 't but mine own " 

And our dear love " 

Which time and thoughts so sweetly " 
And that thou teachest " 

And yet, love knows " 

Thy beauty and thy years "

But she with vehement prayers

he trots, as if he told the steps " 277

He sees his love, and nothing else

When he hath ceased " 919 

when he lived " 935 

if he be dead " 937 

Then he had spoke " 943 

'Tis he, foul creature " 1005 

he's author of thy slander " 1006 

For he being dead " 1019 

He could not die, he is not dead " 1060

When he himself himself confounds " 160 

on a fiint he softly smiteth " 176

He takes it from the rushes " 318 

He in the worst sense construes " 324 

He takes for accidental things " 326

ere rich at home he lands " 336 

Now is he come " 337

What could he see but mightily he

What did he note but strongly he 

desired " 415 

What he beheld, on that he firmly 

doted " 416 

his wilful eye he tired " 417 

admiration he admired " 418 

Which he by dumb demeanour 

seeks " 474 

he commits this ill " 476 

Thus he replies " 477 

Only he hath an eye " 496 

dotes on what he looks " 497

if he mount he dies " 508 

marking what he tells " 510 

' Lucrece,' quoth he " 512 

He rouseth up himself " 541 

he doth but dally " 554

He is no woodman " 580 

Must he in thee " 618 

He learn'd to sin " 630 

' Have done,' quoth he " 645 

' No more,' quoth he " 667 

he sets his foot upon the light " 673 

He pens her piteous clamours " 681 

And he hath won what he would 

lose again " 688 

Ere he can see " 704 

he sounds this doom " ..... 717 

he stands disgraced " 718 

through the dark night he stealeth " 729 

lie left behind " 734 

And he the burthen of a guilty 

mind " 735 

He like a thievish dog creeps " 736 

He scowls, and hates himself " 738 

He faintly flies " 740 

He runs, and chides " 742 

He thence departs " 743 

He in his speed looks for the 

morning light " 745 

ere he go to bed " 776 

Ere he arrive " 781 

as he is but Night's child " 785 

he would distain " 786 

How he in peace is wounded " 831 



He — he that gives them R L 833 

he did complain him " 845 

like still-pining Tantalus he sits " 858

He shall not boast " 1063

though he blush'd " 1344 

She thought he blush'd " 1354

he saw them quake " 1393 

swears he did her wrong " 1462 

with the blunt swains he goes " 1504 

He entertain'd a show " 1514 

he had fainted " 1543 

For every tear he falls " 1551 

That he finds means " 1561 

in her sad face he stares " 1591 

He hath no power " 1594 

At last he takes her " 1597 

groom of thine,' quoth he " 1632 

he set his sword " 1640 

But wretched as he is, he strives 

in vain " 1665 

What he breathes out " 1666 

' He, he,' she says " 1717 

But more than he " 1718 

' He, he, fair lords, 'tis he " 1721 

He falls, and bathes " 1775 

what he said " 1785

Or who is he so fond Son 3 7 

he reeleth from the day " 7 10 

when he takes thee hence " 12 14 

As he takes from you " 15 14 

forgot for which he toil'd " 25 12 

But since he died " 32 13 

he was but one hour mine " 33 11 

And he that calls on thee " 38 11 

where he would be " 44 8 

he answers with a groan " 50 11 

he went wilful-slow " 51 13 

he will not every hour survey " 52 3 

he thinks no ill " 57 14 

whereof now he's king " 63 6 

That he shall never cut " 63 11 

and he in them still green " 63 14 

with infection should he live " 67 1 

Why should he live " 67 9 

He robs thee of, and pays " 79 8 
He lends thee virtue, and he stole

I— lofty trees I see barren of leaves Son 12 

do I question make " 

do I my judgement pluck " 

I have astronomy " 
Nor can I fortune to brief minutes 

tell 

that I in heaven find " 

my knowledge I derive " 

in them I read such art " 

I prognosticate " 

When I consider every thing " 

When I perceive that men " 

I engraft you new " 

If I could write " 

Shall I compare thee " 

But I forbid thee one " 

I will not praise " 

persuade me I am old " 

time's furrows I behold " 

Then look I death " 

How can I then be elder " 
As I, not for myself, but for thee 

will 

which I will keep so chary " 
So I, for fear of trust, forget to say " 

Whilst I, whom fortune " 

in that I honour most " 

Then happy I that love " 

Where I may not remove ' 

To thee I send this " 

But that I hope some good ' 
Then may I dare to boast how I 

do love thee " 

I haste me to my bed " 

from far where I abide ' 

How can I then return ' 

How far I toil ' 

I tell the day ' 
flatter I the swart-complexion'd 

night ' 

I all alone beweep ' 

With what I most enjoy ' 

Haply I think on thee ' 

then I scorn to change ' 

I summon up remembrance ' 
I sigh the lack of many a thing I 

sought ' 

Then can I drown an eye ' 

Then can I grieve ' 

Which I new pay ' 

the while I think on thee ' 
Which I by lacking have supposed 

dead ' 

which I thought buried ' 

images I loved I view in thee ' 

a glorious morning have I seen ' 

I have still the loss ' 

and even I in this ' 

fault I bring in sense ' 
That I an accessary needs must be ' 

I may not evermore acknowledge ' 

I love thee in such sort ' 

So I, made lame by fortune ' 

I make my love engrafted ' 

So then I am not lame ' 
That I in thy abundance am sufficed ' 
that best I wish in thee ' 

This wish I have ' 
manners may I sing '

I — when I praise thee i. 

by this separation I may give 
I cannot blame thee 
I do forgive thy robbery 
When I am sometime absent 
thus I will excuse ye 
thou know'st I love her 
If I lose thee 
and I lose both twain 
my friend and I are one 
When most I wink 
But when I sleep 
How would, I say, my eyes 
to see till I see thee 
I would be brought 
that I am not thought 
I must attend time's leisure 
wherever I abide 
This told, I joy 
I send them back again 
And I am still with them 
How careful was I, when I took 

my way 
Thee have I not lock'd up 
though I feel thou art 
thou wilt be stol'n, I fear 
When I shall see thee frown 
do I ensconce me here 
I can allege no cause 
How heavy do I journey 
When what I seek 
from thee I speed 
should I haste me thence 
Till I return 
Then should I spur 
motion shall I know 
So am I as the rich 
what should I do but tend 
I have no precious time 
Nor dare I chide 
Whilst I, my sovereign, watch the 

clock 
Nor dare I question 
I should in thought control 
I am to wait 
That I might see 
O, sure I am 
For thee watch I 
As I all other 
quite contrary I read 
that for myself I praise 
shall be, as I am now 
do I now fortify 
When I have seen by Time's 
towers I see down-razed 
When I have seen the hungry 
When I have seen such 
for restful death I cry 
from these would I be gone 
I leave my love alone 
for me when I am dead 
world that I am fled 
for I love you so 
That I in your sweet thoughts 
O, if, I say, you look 
When I perhaps compounded am 

with clay 
with me after I am gone 
praise upon deceased I

I- -For I am shamed by that which 

I bring forth Son 

I hold such strife " 

Thus do I pine " 

do I not glance aside " 

Why write I still all one " 

I always write of you " 

' So oft have I invoked thee " 

of that which I compile " 

Whilst I alone did call " 

I grant, sweet love " 
O, how I faint when I of you do 

write " 

I am a worthless boat "

Or I shall live your epitaph to 

make " 

■when I in earth am rotten " 
Though I, once gone, to all the 

world must die " 

I grant thou wert " 

I never saw that you " 

I found or thought I found " 

have I slept in your report " 

For I impair not beauty " 

I think good thoughts " 

I say ' 'Tis so, 'tis true " 

I was not sick " 

Then lack'd I matter " 

For how do I hold thee " 

Thus have I had thee " 

I can set down a story " 

wherein I am attainted " 

And I by this will be " 

that to myself I do " 

to thee I so belong " 

And I will comment " 

and I straight will halt " 

I will acquaintance strangle " 
Lest I, too much profane, should 

do it wrong " 

For I must ne'er love him " 

80 shall I taste " 

I better in one general best " 

of all men's pride I boast " 

need I not to fear " 

I see a better state " 

happy title do I find " 

and yet I know it not " 

SoshalllUve " 

I cannot know thy change " 

I love thee in such sort " 

What freezings have I felt " 

have I been absent " 

Nor did I wonder " 

I with these did play " 

violet thus did I chide " 

The lily I condemned " 
More flowers I noted, yet I none 

could see " 

I teach thee how " 

I love not less " 

When I was wont to greet it " 

I sometime hold my tongue " 

Because I would not dull you " 

if I no more can write " 

first your eye I eyed " 

of the seasons have I seen " 

Since first I saw you fresh "

[ — I see descriptions Son 

1 see their antique pen " 

I'll live in this poor rhyme " 

I must each day say o'er " 

thou mine, I thine " 

I hallow'd thy fair name " 

that I was false of heart " 

might I from myself depart " 

if I have ranged " 

I return again " 

wide universe I call " 

I have gone here and there " 

that I have look'd on truth " 

I never more will grind " 

to whom I am confined " 

and wish I were renew'd " 
like a willing patient, I will drink " 

that I will bitter think " 

and I assure ye " 

For what care I who calls " 

and I mu-st strive " 

nor I to none alive " 
In so profound abysm I throw all 

care " 

my neglect I do dispense " 

Since I left you " 

Or whether shall I say " 
Those lines that I before have writ " 

I could not love you dearer " 
Might I not then say, ' Now I love 

you best " 

When I was certain " 

then might I not say so " 

I never writ " 

that I have scanted all " 
I should your great deserts repay " 

That I have frequent been " 

That I have hoisted sail " 

says I did strive to prove " 

did I frame my feeding " 

But thence I learn " 

What potions have I drunk " 

when I saw myself to win " 

now I find true " 

So I return rebuked " 

more than I have spent " 

which I then did feel " 

I under my transgression bow " 

As I by yours, you've pass'd " 
And I, a tyrant, have no leisure 

taken " 

once I suffer'd in your crime " 

count bad what I think good " 

No, I am that I am " 

I may be straight "

IDIOT 



I —I grant I never saw Son 

I think my love as rare " 

I dare not be so bold " 

Although I swear it to myself " 

that is not false I swear " 

as I think, proceeds " 

Thine eyes I love " 

Then will I swear beauty " 

and thee, I am forsaken " 

for I, being pent in thee " 

So, now I have confess'd " 

And I myself am mortgaged " 

So him I lose " 

Him have I lost " 

and yet am I not free " 

am I that vex thee stUl " 
that I was thy ' Will 

account I one must be " 
I do believe her, though I know 

she lies " 
Simply I credit her false-speaking 

tongue " 

say not I that I am old " 

Therefore I lie with her " 

since I am near slain " 

If I might teach thee wit " 
if I should despair, I should grow 

mad " 

That I may not be so " 

I do not love thee " 

thus far I count my gain " 

Be it lawful I love thee " 

Whilst I thy babe chase thee " 

So will I pray " 

Two loves I have of comfort " 

Suspect I may " 

I guess one angel " 

Yet this shall I ne'er know " 

the sound that said ' I hate " 

' I hate ' she alter'd " 

' I hate ' from hate away " 

and I desperate now approve " 

Past cure I am " 

For I have sworn thee fair " 

Say I love thee not " 

When I against myself " 
Do I not think on thee when I 

forgot " 

that I do call my friend " 

that I do fawn upon " 

do I not spend " 

do I in myself respect " 

now I know thy mind " 

and I am blind " 

The more I hear " 

0, though I love " 
worthy I to be beloved " 
betraying me, I do betray " 
hold it what I call " 
for whose dear love I rise and fall " 
know'st I am forsworn " 
do I accuse thee " 
When I break twenty ? I am per- 
jured most " 

For I have sworn " 
For I have sworn thee fair ; more 

perjured I " 

1, sick withal, the help of bath de- 
sired "

In — assistance in my verse Son 
In others' works thou dost but mend " 

found it in thy cheek " 

what in thee doth live " 

And in the praise thereof spends " 

when I in earth am rotten " 

in me each part will be forgotten " 

entombed in men's eyes " 

in the mouths of men " 
Thou art as fair in knowledge as 

in hue " 

in true plain -words " 

in thee it is abused " 

slept in your report " 

what worth in you doth grow " 

in one of your fair eyes " 

poets can in praise devise " 

In whose confine immured " 

what in you is writ " 

Muse in manners holds her still " 

In polish'd form " 

that is in my thought " 

speaking in efifect " 

thoughts in my brain " 

My bonds in thee " 

gift in me is wanting " 

In sleep a king " 

in the eye of scorn " 

thou in losing me " 

and in my tongue " 

do not drop in for an after-loss " 

Come in the rearward " 

But in the onset come " 
Some glory in their birth, some in 

their skill " 
Some in their wealth, some in 

their body's force " 

Some in their garments " 
Some in their hawks and hounds, 

some in their horse " 

I better in one general best " 

Wretched in this alone " 

When in the least " 

heart in other place " 

no hatred in thine eye " 

In that I cannot know " 

In many's looks " 

Is writ in moods " 
heaven in thy creation did decree " 

That in thy face " 

canker in the fragrant rose " 
O, in what sweets dost thou thy 

sins inclose " 

but in a kind of praise " 

that in thee are seen " 

I love thee In such sort " 

been absent in the spring " 

dr&ss'd in all his trim " 

youth in every thing " 

flowers in odour and in hue " 

Vermillion in the rose " 

In my love's veins " 

in pride of all his growth " 

In gentle numbers " 

truth in beauty dyed " 

for't lies in thee *' 

more weak in seeming " 

but in the spring " 

in summer's front doth sing "

In— and me in that one ' Will 
in things of great receipt 
Then in the number 
Though in thy store's account 
Be anchor'd in the bay 
In things right true 
in the world's false subtleties 
is in seeming trust 
And age in love 
And in our faults 
but in my sight 
And in my madness 
In faith, I do not love thee 
they in thee a thousand errors note 
in despite of view 
Root pity in thy heart 
In pursuit of the thing 
child holds her in chase 

one angel in another's hell 

but live in doubt 

Straight in her heart 

in giving gentle doom 

in selling hours of dross 

Love put in my head 

do I in myself respect 

That in the very refuse 

That, in my mind, thy worst 

raised love in me 

Triumph in love 

To stand in thy aflFairs 

In loving thee 

In act thy bed-vow broke 

In vowing new hate 

faith in thee is lost 

In a cold valley-fountain 

but in her maiden hand 

in a cool well by 

silken figures in the brine 

had pelleted in tears 

In clamours of all size 

nor tied in formal plat 

in her a careless hand of pride 

Some in her threaden fillet 

braided in loose negligence 

she in a river threw 

find their sepulchres in mud 

sadly penn'd in blood 

she in her fluxive eyes 

This said, in top of rage 

In brief the grounds and motives 

in the charity of age 

though in me you behold 

And when in his fair parts 

did hang in crooked curls 

was in little drawn 

thinks in Paradise was sawa 

wavering stood in doubt 

falseness in a pride of truth 

in himself, not in his case 

catching all passions in his craft 

of will 
in the general bosom reign 
dwell with him in thoughts 
In personal duty, following 
and in it put their mind 
that in the imagination set 
theirs in thought assign'd 
And labouring in moe pleasures 
That did in freedom stand

Still is he sullen 

Her best is better'd 

'Tis but a kiss I beg 

sport is not in sight 

My flesh is soft 

Love is a spirit all compact 

Is love so light, sweet boy 

Is thine own heart 

to get it is thy duty 

Still is left alive 

what 'tis to love 

Within this limit is relief 

The time is spent

My day's delight is past, my horse

And 'tis your fault 

Is how to get my palfrey 

Affection is a coal 

Who is so faint 

lesson is but plain 

'Tis much to borrow 

is love but to disgrace it 

For I have heard it is 

The colt that's back'd 

where a heart is hard

now is turn'd to day 

So is her face illumined

new " 

what is already spent

immured is the store 
what in you is writ

wanting 
my patent back again is swerving 
Such is my love 
while the world is bent 
Thy love is better 
Is writ in moods 
flower is to the summer sweet 
thy fault is youth 
thy grace is youth 
mine is thy good report 
'tis with so dull a cheer 
But best is best 
My love is strengthen'd 
That love is merchandized 
the summer is less pleasant now 
argument, aU bare, is of more 

worth 
Kind is my love to-day 
' Fair, kind, and true ' is aU my 

argument 
in this change is my invention 

spent 
What's in the brain 
What's new to speak 
That is my home of love 
Alas, 'tis true 

sold cheap what is most dear 
true it is that I have look'd 
Now all is done 
my nature is subdued 
your pity is enough to cure 
mine eye is in my mind 
and is partly blind 
but efifectually is out 
O, 'tis the first ; 'tis flattery 
what with his gust is 'greeing 
'tis the lesser sin 
Love is a babe 
Love is not love 
it is an ever-fixed mark 
and is never shaken 
It is the star 
Whose worth's unknown 
Love's not Time's fool 
That better is by evil 
when it is built anew 
'Tis better to be vile

I should grow mad 
Mad slanderers by mad ears be-

Madam—' Madam, ere I was up 
Madding— of this madding fever 
Made — Nature that made thee 
resistance made him fret 
Torches are made to light 
Love made those hollows 
his acts made plain 
made mine hard 
And once made perfect 
thyself art made away 
then apologies be made 
Made glorious by his manly chiv- 
alry 
and made her thrall 
which in thy reign are made 
If that be made a theme 
the other made divine 
made me stop my breath 
Make weak-made women tenants 
made for Priam's Troy 
made herself herself detest 
vow, which Brutus made before 
This were to be new made 
hath not made for store 
So I, made lame 
mine eyes be blessed made

being made from thee 
of perfect'st love being made 
whereof are ye made 
are sweetest odours made 
that made me first your slave 
And art made tongue-tied 
dead fleece made another gay 
what nature made so clear 
made myself a motley 
Made old offences 
by evil still made better 
Made more or less 
that she is made of truth 
made them swear against the thing 

they see 
and made him her place 
made fairer by their place 
and made their wills obey 
Love made them not 
smiled or made some moan 
made the blossoms dote 
that she is made of truth 
tarriance for Adonis made 
which a grove of myrtles made 
Made me think upon mine own 
Whereupon it made this threne 
Madly — Which madly hurries her 
Is madly toss'd 

desire thus madly led "

men's minds confound " 
The eyes of men without an orator R L 

that meaner men should vaunt " 

A martial man to be "

More — Her more than haste 
once more leap her eyes 
That makes more gashes 
more am I accurst 
now no more reflect 
more sweet-smelling sire 
espoused to more fame 
he pineth still for more 
More than his eyes 
And so, by hoping more 
Or gaining more 
beholds as more divine 
Paying more slavish tribute 
To add a more rejoicing 
birds more cause to sing 
latch, and with no more 
With more than admiration 
with more dreadful sights 
more rage and lesser pity 
her oratory adds more grace 
' No more,' quoth he 
To make more vent 
doth make the wound ache more 
No more than wax 
The more to blame 
For more it is 
When more is felt 
moves more than hear them told 
with more than haste 
Speed more than speed 
Promise more speed 
make him more amazed 
The more she saw the blood 
The more she thought 
More feeling-painful 
But more than he 
That I no more can see 
to make it more 
How much more praise 
she gave thee more 
Thou shouldst print more 
With means more blessed 
more lovely and more temperate 
An eye more bright 
Let them say more 
More than that tongue that more 

hath more express'd 
more rich in hope 
once more re-survey 
No more be grieved 
more than thy sins are 
or all, or more 
ten times more in worth 
What hast thou then more than 

thou hadst before 
thou hadst this more 
touches me more nearly 
More sharp to me 
O, how much more 
shall shine more bright 
more blest may be 
thrice more wish'd, more rare 
To do more for me 
And hang more praise 
live no more to shame 
makes thy love more strong 
There lives more life 
Which can say more 
of praise add something more

More — no more shall dwell 
Of more delight than hawks 
loved of more and less 
More flowers I noted 
more weak in seeming 
is of more worth 
If I no more can write 
And more, much more 
I never more will grind 
Incapable of more 
our appetites more keen 
more strong, far greater 
more than I have spent 
that receive thee more 
Made more or less 
Which prove more short 
Lose all, and more 
more blest than living lips 
Coral is far more red 
is there more delight 
a far more pleasing sound 
More than enough 
make thy large ' Will ' more 
Is more than my o'er-press'd de- 
fence can bide 
without be rich no more 
there's no more dying then 
make me love thee more 
The more I hear and see 
More worthy I to be 
more perjured I 
more black and damned here 
by that cost more dear 
to make our wits more keen 
with more than love's good will 
he saw more wounds than one 
And yet thou left'st me more 
more mickle was the pain 
More in women than in men 
Use his company no more 

Horn — of the weeping morn 
From morn till night 
Like a red morn 
He cheers the morn 
or morn or weary even 
To wake the morn 
one early morn did shine 
when his youthful morn 
dried up the dewy morn 
Fair was the morn 
Youth like summer morn 

Morning — And wakes the morning 
Musing the morning 
morning's silver-melting dew 
looks for the morning light 
ravish the morning air 
that tune their morning's joy 
Full many a glorious morning 
the morning sun of heaven 
watch ; the morning rise 

Mortal — on this mortal round 
Like to a mortal butcher 
for thy mortal vigour 
of all mortal things 
overthrow of mortal kind 
Where mortal stars, as bright 
had closed up mortal eyes 
at the mercy of his mortal sting 
And by their mortal fault

MY 



195 



MY 



By — my foot did stand 
leisure with my moan 
The first my thought, the other 

my desire 
My life, being made of four 
my heart thy picture's sight 
My heart mine eye the freedom 
My heart doth plead 
And my heart's right 
With my love's picture then my 

eye doth feast 
to the painted banquet bids my 

heart 
mine eye is my heart's guest 
thy picture or my love 
my thoughts canst move 
thy picture in my sight 
Awakes my heart 
when I took my way 
That to my use 
my jewels trifles are 
now my greatest grief 
closure of my breast 
frown on my defects 
And this my hand 
my weary travel's end 
tired with my woe 
put this in my mind 
My grief lies onward and my joy 

behind 
Thus can my love 
Of my dull bearer 
my poor beast then find 
with my desire keep pace 
shall excuse my jade 
keeps you as my chest 
Whilst I, my sovereign 
with my jealous thought 
my verse shall stand 
My heavy eyelids 
desire my slumbers 
do mock my sight 
into my deeds to pry 
It is my love 
doth my rest defeat 
all my soul and all my every part 
inward in my heart 
But when my glass 
Painting my age 
Against my love 
My sweet love's beauty, though my 

lover's life 
and take my love 
my love may still shine 
I leave my love alone 
my poor name rehearse 
with my life decay 
After my death 
My name be, buried where my 

body is 
My life hath in this 
My spirit is thine 
my body being dead 
you to my thoughts as food 
may see my pleasure 
Why is my verse so barren 
almost tell my name 
are still my argument 
So all my best is

My — So is my love 
invoked thee for my Muse 
assistance in my verse 
pen hath got my use 
thou art all my art 
my rude ignorance 
My verse alone 

But now my gracious numbers 
And my sick Muse 
My saucy bark 
my love was my decay 
be my gentle verse 
such virtue hath my pen 
married to my Muse 
a limit past my praise 
silence for my sin 
shall be most my glory 
My tongue-tied Muse 
that is in my thought 
for my dumb thoughts 
my ripe thoughts in my brain in- 

hearse 
my verse astonished 
of my silence cannot boast 
too dear for my possessing 
My bonds in thee 
where is my deserving 
so my patent back 
And place my merit 
bending all my loving thoughts 
Such is my love 
Speak of my lameness 
and in my tongue 
my deeds to cross 
my heart hath 'scaped 
are not my measure 
my life hath end 
Since that my life 
hath my absence been 
from my love's breath 
In my love's veins 
my love's sweet face 
Give my love fame 
on my love depends 
My love is strengthen'd 
greet it with my lays 
sometime hold my tongue 
dull you with my song 
my Muse brings forth 
my added praise beside 
my blunt invention 
DuUing my lines 
to no other pass my versts tend 
in my verse can sit 
Let not my love 
Nor my beloved 
all alike my songs 
Kind is my love to-day 
Therefore my verse 
is all my argument 
is my invention spent 
the lease of my true love 
My love looks fresh 
to thee my true spirit 
That may express my love 
seem'd ray flame to qualify 
As from my soul 
That is my home 
bring water for my stain

NOT 



Not — Not making worse 
I was not sick 
worth then not knowing 
Thou canst not, love 
And do not drop 
Ah, do not, when my heart 
Give not a windy night 
do not leave me last 
will not seem so 
are not my measure 
need I not to fear 
Thou canst not vex me 
yet I know it not 
answer not thy show 
That do not do the thing 
But do not so 
If not from my love's 
wilt thou not haply say 
Excuse not silence 
I love not less 
Not that the summer 
Because I would not 
O, blame me not 
Were it not sinful 
Let not my love 
They had not skill 
Not mine own fears 
Which hath not figured 
Weighs not the dust 
not with time 
That did not better 
I could not love you dearer 
might I not then say 
might I not say so 
Let me not to the marriage 
Love is not love 
Love's not Time's fool 
Love alters not 
But shoot not at me 
The ills that were not, grew 
When not to be receives 
Not by our feeling 
must not be shown 
could not so much hold 
No, Time, thou shalt not boast 
Not wondering at 
It suflFers not in smiling 
It fears not policy 
Have I not seen dwellers 
which is not mix'd 
but not still keep 
black was not counted fair 
bore not beauty's name 
if not lives in disgrace 
who, not born fair, no beauty lack 
cruel, not to trust 
face hath not the power 
I dare not be so bold 
is not false I swear 
truly not the morning 
Is't not enough 
Thou canst not then 
But thou wilt not, nor he wiU not 

be free 
yet am I not free 
Not once vouchsafe 
see not what they see 
say this is not 
says she not she is unjust

Of— desire sees best of all 
rob thee of a kiss 
Now of this dark night 
condemn'd of treason 
workmanship of nature 
Of mad mischances 
heating of the blood 
not the least of all 
despite of fruitless chastity 
of daughters and of sons 
by the rights of time 
reaves his son of life 
closure of my breast 
to be barr'd of rest 
Lust full of forged lies 
full of shame, my heart of teen 
Of those fair arms 
discovery of her way 
repetition of her moans 
the choir of echoes 
humor of fantastic wits 
lark, weary of rest 
patron of all light 
no tidings of her love 
yelping of the hounds 
proceedings of a drunken brain 
Full of respects 
licking of his wound 
Hateful divorce of love 
as one full of despair 
channel of her bosom dropp'd 
This sound of hope 
face of the sluttish ground 
both of them extremes 
clepes him king of graves 
of all mortal things 
I felt a kind of fear 
author of thy slander 
Tells him of trophies 
To be of such a weak 
overthrow of mortal kind 
thou art so full of fear 
stars ashamed of day 
cabins of her head 
disposing of her troubled brain 
drops of hot desire 
Of things long since 
to rob him of his fair 
pity of his tender years 
robb'd of his effect 
' Wonder of time 
false and full of fraud 
and too full of riot 
is no cause of fear 
It shall be cause of war 
of a more sweet-smelling sire 
art the next of blood 
Thus weary of the world 
wings of false desire 
Of Collatine's fair love 
that name of ' chaste 
sky of his delight 
treasure of his happy state 
possession of his beauteous mate 
but of a few 
splendour of the sun 
from a world of harm 
doth of itself persuade 
The eyes of men

Of amber, crystal, and of beaded

Of folded schedules

This said, in top of rage 
Of court, of city

ONE 



On — On whom frown'st thou 

if thou lour'st on me 

But, love, hate on 

Which on it had 

Their view right on 

For on his visage 

velvet, on that termless skin 

on this side the verdict went 

80 on the tip 

that do on mine depend 

were levell'd on my face 

that on this earth doth shine 

Then fell she on her back 

on the brook's green brim 

The sun look'd on the vrorld 

as this queen on him 

he seized on my lips 

And with her lips on his 

lie wither'd on the ground 

descant on the doubts of my decay 

Till looking on an Englishman 

On a day, alack the day 

meetings on the plains 

to round me on th' ear 

None takes pity on thy pain 

They that fawned on him 

On the sole Arabian tree 
Once — season once more fits 

attorney once is mute 

Once more the engine 

And once made perfect 

Once more the ruby-colour'd 

kill me once again 

captain once doth yield 

once more leap her eyes 

in his fair welkin once appear 

Which once corrupted 

ere once she speaks 

when once thou art a king 

Who wayward once 

Once set on ringing 

Ere once she can discharge 

all at once began to say 

can see what once I was 

a thousand victories once foil'd 

by fortune once more re-survey 

bid your servant once adieu 

once in the main of light 

Though I, once gone 

That you were once unkind 

how once I sulfer'd 

Not once vouchsafe 

And Death once dead 

Love-god lying once asleep 

To every place at once 

' Once,' quoth she 

So beauty blemish'd once 

But if fortune once do frown 
One — Ten kisses short as one, one 
long as twenty VA 

Over one arm the lusty courser's 
rein 

And one sweet kiss 

not see one wrinkle 

for one poor kiss 
Give me one kiss 
And one for interest 
lily fingers one in one 
excel a common one

So — He with the Bomans was es- 
teemed so 
wife mistook the matter so

And so to publish

who is he so fond 
So thou through windows 
So great a sum 
So thou, thyself 
user so destroys it 
art so unprovident 
thou art so possess'd 
so fast thou grow'st 
If all were minded so 
So should that beauty 
Who lets so fair a house 
let your son say so 
So should the lines 
So should my papers 
So long as men 
So long lives this 
So is it not with me 
though not so bright 
So long as youth 
be of thyself so wary 
I will keep so chary 
So I, for fear 
Duty so great, which wit so poor 

as mine 
So flatter I 
Even so my sun 
So shall those blots 
But do not so 
So I, made lame 
So then I am not lame 
For who's so dumb 
so sweetly doth deceive 
even so doth she abuse 
thy shade shines so 
so much of earth 
by elements so slow 
So, either by thy picture 
for a prize so dear 
So am I as the rich 
so solemn and so rare 
So is the time 
Sweet roses do not so 
And so of you 
So, till the judgement 
So, love, be thou 
So true a fool is love 
your charter is so strong 
waiting so be hell 
So do our minutes 
So far from home 
is not so great 
It is so grounded 
so gracious is as mine 
No shape so true 
Self so self-loving 
are not so stout 
gates of steel so strong 
before these last so bad 
so as foes commend 
that give thee so thine own 
So thou be good 
cannot be so thy praise

That — Each changing place with 

that which goes before Son 

And Time that gave " 

thy spirit that thou send'st from 

thee 
It is my love that keeps mine eye 
love that doth my rest 
'Tis thee, myself, that for myself 

I praise 
That he shall never cut 
That time will come 
weep to have that which it fears 

to lose 
That in black ink my love 
Save that, to die I leave 
That sin by him advantage 
Those parts of thee that the 

world's eye doth view 
Want nothing that the thought of 

hearts 
give thee that due 
tongues, that give thee so thine own 
And that, in guess they measure 

by thy deeds 
The soil is this, that thou dost 

common grow 
That thou art blamed shall not 
A crow that flies 
Give warning to the world that I 

am fled 
The hand that writ it 
That I in your sweet thoughts 
What merit lived in me, that you 

should love 
That you for love speak well 
by that which I bring forth 
That time of year thou mayst 
Death's second self, that seals up 

all in rest 
That on the ashes 
consumed with that which it was 

nourish'd by 
To love that well which 
when that fell arrest 
The worth of that is that which it 
And that is this, and this 
Then better'd that the world 
That every word doth 
Thine eyes that taught thee dumb 
proud of that which I compile 
and he stole that word 
thank him not for that which he 

doth say 
saw that you did painting need 
That you yourself, being extant 
Who is it that says most 
Than this rich praise, that you 

alone are you 
within that pen doth dwell 
That to his subject lends 
But he that writes of you 
That you are you 
To every hymn that able spirit 

aflbrds 
But that is in my thought 
That did my ripe thoughts 
mortal pitch, that struck me dead 
He, nor that affable familiar ghost 
that enfeebled mine

my deserving Son 

That thou in losing me " 

The injuries that to myself I do " 

That for thy right myself will bear " 

Say that thou didst forsake " 

comment upon that offence " 
Wretched in thi^ alone, that thou 

mayst take " 

it depends upon that love of thine " 

Than that which on thy humour " 

Since that my life on thy revolt " 
what's so blessed fair that fears no 

blot " 

Therefore in that I cannot know " 

That in thy face sweet love should " 

They that have power " 

That do not do the thing " 

But if that flower " 

Lilies that fester smell far worse " 

That tongue that tells " 
all things turn to fair that eyes 

can see " 

graces that to thee resort " 

errors that in thee are seen " 

That leaves look pale " 

That heavy Saturn laugh'd " 

steal thy sweet that smells " 
Where art thou, Muse, that thou 

forget'st so long " 

To speak of that which gives " 

ear that doth thy lays esteem " 

That love is merchandized " 

Not that the summer is " 

But that wild music burthens " 

That having such a scope " 

That over-goes my blunt " 
To mar the subject that before 

was well " 
What's in the brain, that ink may 

character " 
That may express my love " 
So that eternal love " 
never say that I was false of heart " 
That is my home of love " 
Like him that travels " 
So that myself bring water " 
All frailties that besiege " 
That it could so preposterously " 
Most true it is that I have look'd " 
That did not better for my life " 
Thence comes it that my name re- 
ceives a brand " 
bitterness that I will bitter think " 
Even that your pity is enough " 
That my steel'd sense " 
that my adder's sense " 
That all the world besides " 
And that which governs " 
And that your love taught it " 
That mine eye loves it " 
lines that I before have writ " 
Even those that said I could not love " 
To give full growth to that which 

still doth grow " 
That looks on tempests " 
Accuse me thus : that I have scant- 
ed all " 
That I have frequent been "

hell 
the breath that from my mistress

do blot the heaven 

the swart-complexion'd night

When to the sessions 

I sigh the lack 

And moan the expense

But if the while I think 

As interest of the dead 

Thou art the grave 

Hung with the trophies 

hast all the all of me 

the bettering of the time 

the height of happier men 

Flatter the mountain-tops 

the meadows green 

the basest clouds to ride 

And from the forlorn world 

The region cloud 

Suns of the world may stain 

that through the cloud thou break 

To dry the rain 

heals the wound and cures not the 

disgrace 
yet I have still the loss 
The offender's sorrow 
bear the strong offence's cross 
0, give thyself the thanks 
Be thou the tenth Muse 
The pain be mine, but thine shall 

be the praise 
all the better part of me 
To entertain the time 
But here's the joy 
For all the day 
To the clear day 
in the living day 
If the dull substance

THE 



292 



THE 



The — The first my thought, the 
other my desire 
the conquest of thy sight 
the freedom of that right 
But the defendant 
all tenants to the heart 
The clear eye's moiety and the 

dear heart's part 
now unto the other 
And to the painted banquet 
Are left the prey 
Within the gentle closure 
from the thing it was 
Within the knowledge of mine 
To guard the lawful reasons 
the strength of laws 
I journey on the way 
' Thus far the miles 
The beast that bears me 
the wretch did know 
The bloody spur 
excuse the slow oflfence 
mounted on the wind 
So am I as the rich 
The which he will not 
For blunting the fine point 
in the long year set 
jewels in the carcanet 
So is the time 
the wardrobe which the robe doth 

hide 
and the counterfeit 
Speak of the spring and foison of 

the year 
The one doth shadow 
The other as your bounty 
The rose looks fair 
The canker-blooms 
As the perfumed tincture of the 

roses 
nor the gilded monuments 
root out the work of masonry 
The living record 
Even in the eyes 
out to the ending doom 
So, till the judgement 
The spirit of love 
like the ocean be 
Which parts the shore 
Come daily to the banks 
may be the view 
Upon the hours 

chide the world-Without-end hour 
watch the clock for you 
Kor think the bitterness 
at your hand the account 
The imprison'd absence 
The second burthen 
courses of the sun 
what the old world could say 
revolution be the same 
the wits of former days 
Like as the waves make towards 

the pebbled shore 
once in the main of light 
the flourish set on youth 
delves the parallels 
Feeds on the rarities 
eyelids to the weary night

the eye hath shown 
the beauty of thy mind 
the rank smell of weeds 
The soil is this 
was ever yet the fair 
The ornament of beauty 
Thy worth the greater 
the sweetest buds doth love 
the ambush of young days 
the surly sullen beU 
the world that I am fled 
The hand that writ it 
Lest the wise world 
O, lest the world 
shake against the cold 
late the sweet birds sang 
the twilight of such day 
fadeth in the west 
the glowing of such fire 
That on the ashes 
As the death-bed 
The very part 
The earth can have 
the better part of me 
lost the dregs of life 
The prey of worms 
The coward conquest 
The worth of that 
showers are to the ground 
And for the peace of you 
Doubting the filching age 
the world may see my pleasure 
Why with the time 
ever the same 
For as the sun 
The vacant leaves 
The wrinkles which thy glass 
the dumb on high 
to the learned's wing 
but mend the style 
Deserves the travail of a worthier 

pen 
And in the praise thereof 
wide as the ocean is 
The humble as the proudest 
The worst was this 
to all the world must die 
The earth can yield me 
When all the breathers 
even in the mouths of men 
The dedicated words 
the time-bettering days 
The barren tender

Die — immured is the store 
by all the Muses filed 
to the most of praise 
for the breath of words 
Was it the proud 
Bound for the prize 
the womb whereiu they grew 
The charter of thy worth 
The cause of this fair gift 
in the eye of scorn 
The injuries that to myself 
while the world is bent 
with the spite of fortune 
Come in the rearward 
But in the onset come 
At first the very worst 
a joy above the rest 
the worst of wrongs 
When in the least of them 
the false heart's history 
do not do the thing 
They are the lords and owners 
The summer's flower is to the 

summer sweet 
The basest weed 
dost thou make the shame 
a canker in the fragrant rose 
Doth spot the beauty 
the story of thy days 
The hardest knife 
As on the finger 
The basest jewel 
the stern wolf betray 
the strength of all thy state 
the pleasure of the fleeting year 
The teeming autumn 
the wanton burthen of the prime 
the very birds are mute 
dreading the winter's near 
been absent in the spring 
Yet nor the lays of birds, nor the 

sweet smell 
at the Hly's white 
the deep vermillion in the rose 
The forward violet 
The purple pride 
The lily I condemned 
The roses fearfully 
Sing to the ear 
though less the show 
The owner's tongue 
and then but in the spring 
Not that the summer 
did hush the night 
The argument, all bare 
To mar the subject 
Have from the forests 
the seasons have I seen 
When in the chronicle 
of the fairest wights 
Then, in the blazon 
nor the prophetic soul 
Of the wide world 
Can yet the lease 
The mortal moon 
And the sad augurs mock 
Now with the drops 
What's in the brain 
say o'er the very same

must be tomb'd with thee 
In thee thy summer 
to breed another thee 
ten times refigured thee 
Leaving thee living in posterity 
do but sweetly chide thee 
Sings this to thee 
The world will wail thee 
form of thee hast left behind 
Make thee another self 
live in thine or thee 
She carved thee for her seal 
when he takes thee hence 
of thee this I prognosticate 
compare thee to a summer's day 
and this gives life to thee 
But I forbid thee 
as she wrought thee 
me of thee defeated 
she prick'd thee out 
when in thee time's furrows 
beauty that doth cover thee 
myself, but for thee will 
to gaze therein on thee 
To thee I send this 
how I do love thee 
a zealous pilgrimage to thee 
For thee and for myself 
still farther off from thee 
Haply I think on thee 
the while I think on thee 
that hidden in thee lie 
parts of me to thee did give 
evermore acknowledge thee 
should do thee shame 
I love thee in such sort 
that best I wish in thee 
that cannot write to thee 
And he that calls on thee 
when I praise thee 
That due to thee 
I cannot blamn thee

THY 



Thy — I cannot know thy change 
in thy creation did decree 
That in thy face 
Whate'er thy thoughts or thy 

heart's workings be 
Thy looks should nothing 
doth thy beauty grow 
If thy sweet virtue answer not thy 

show 
of thy budding name 
dost thou thy sins inclose 
the story of thy days 
comments on thy sport 
Naming thy name 
Some say, thy fault is youth 
Rome say, thy grace is youth 
the strength of all thy state 
mine is thy good report 
whence didst thou steal thy sweet 
Which on thy soft cheek 
condemned for thy hand 
had stol'n thy hair 
had annex'd thy breath 
gives thee all thy might 
Spend'st thou thy fury 
Darkening thy power 
that doth thy lays esteem 
And gives thy pen 
what shall be thy amends 
For thy neglect 
Then do thy ofilce 
Shalt find thy monument 
or thy dear merit 
I hallow'd thy fair name 
in thy breast doth lie 
all thy sum of good 
Even to thy pure 
Thy gift, thy tables 
Of thee, thy record 
thy dear love to score 
Thy pyramids built up 
Thy registers and thee 
For thy records and what 
by thy continual haste 
despite thy scythe and thee 
obsequious in thy heart 
stands least in thy control 
who in thy power 
Thy lovers withering as thy sweet 

self grow'st 
With thy sweet fingers 
tender inward of thy hand 
O'er whom thy fingers walk 
Give them thy fingers, me thy lips 

to kiss 
Thy face hath not the power 
but thinking on thy face 
Thy black is fairest 
black save in thy deeds 
Knowing thy heart torments 
eyes become thy face 
as well beseem thy heart 
And suit thy pity 
that thy complexion lack 
thy cruel eye 
thy steel bosom's ward 
am mortgaged to thy will 
The statute of thy beauty 
thou hast thy 'Will

Thy— To thy sweet will & 

'Will,' add to thy 'Will 
make thy large 'Will' more 
If thy soul check thee 
Swear to thy blind soul that I was 

thy 'Will 
And will, thy soul knows 
the treasure of thy love 
Though in thy stores 
Make but my name thy love 
That thy unkindness 
but with thy tongue 
when thy might 
thy proud heart go wide 
thy tongue's tune delighted 
Thy proud heart's slave 
and thy dear virtue hate 
Root pity in thy heart 
Thy pity may deserve 
Whilst I, thy babe, chase 
But if thou catch thy hope 
mayst have thy ' Will 
Painting thy outward walls 
thy fading mansion spend 
Eat up thy charge? is this thy 

body's end 
upon thy servant's loss 
to aggravate thy store 
thy foul faults should find 
all tyrant for thy sake 
thy service to despise 
doth worship thy defect 
now I know thy mind 
refuse of thy deeds 
thy worst all best exceeds 
If thy unworthiness raised love 
thy sweet self prove 
But rising at thy name 
thy poor drudge to be 
To stand in thy afi'airs, fall by thy 

side 
In act thy hed-vow broke 
of thy deep kindness 
Oaths of thy love, thy truth, thy 

constancy 
It is thy last 1 

Thy grace being gain'd J 

that I thy parts admire 
thy voice his dreadful thunder 
left'st me nothing in thy will 
Thy discontent thou didst bequeath 
thy cheeks may blow 
pluck thee from thy thorn 
Turning mortal for thy love 
Thy like ne'er was 
thou comest thy tale to tell 
Smooth not thy tongue 
And set thy person forth 
frame all thy ways 
Where thy desert may merit 
By ringing in thy lady's ear 
And in thy suit be humble true 
Unless thy lady prove unjust 
To live with thee and be thy love 
None takes pity on thy pain 
All thy friends are lapp'd in lead 
All thy fellow birds do sing 
Careless of thy sorrowing 
Every man will be thy friend

TO 



To — want subject to invent 
paper to rehearse 
cannot write to thee 
to outlive long date 
to mine own self bring 
That due to thee 
To entertain the time 
how to make one twain 
To bear love's wrong 
and therefore to be won 
therefore to be assailed 
to break a twofold truth 
tempting her to thee 
being false to me 
my sake to approve her 
To the clear day 
When to unseeing eyes 
to see till I see thee 
To leap large lengths 
embassy of love to thee 
Sinks down to death 
recounting it to me 
How to divide 
To 'cide this title 
tenants to the heart 
And to the painted banquet 
to heart's and eye's delight 
truest bars to thrust 
That to my use 
to whom my jewels trifles are 
Call'd to that audit 
To guard the lawful 
To leave poor me 
Since why to love 
and that repose to say 
to bear that weight 
More sharp to me than spurring 

to his side 
give him leave to go 
bring him to his sweet up-locked 
To make some special 
Being had, to triumph, being 

lack'd, to hope 
Die to themselves 
out to the ending doom 
Come daily to the banks 
time at all to spend 
Nor services to do 
of hours to crave 
to stay your leisure 
tame to sufferance 
To what you will ; to you it doth 

belong 
Yourself to pardon 
I am to wait 

To this composed wonder 
To subjects worse have given 
hasten to their end 
crawls to maturity 
for his scythe to mow 
And yet to times 
to the weary night 
shadows like to thee do mock 
into my deeds to pry 
To find out shames 
To play the watchman 
to age's steepy night 
slave to mortal rage 
confounded to decay

To — thus to ruminate 

But weep to have that which it 
fears to lose 

As, to behold deserv 

Save that, to die 

Beggar'd of blood to blush 

to show what wealth 

To live a second life 

to dress his beauty new 

To show false Art 

To thy fair flower 

To tie up envy 

Give warning to the world 

with vilest worms to dwell 

task you to recite 

To do more for me 

no more to shame 

to love things nothing worth 

To love that well 

was consecrate to thee 

of thee to be remembered 

So are you to my thoughts as food 
to life 

showers are to the ground 

to be with you alone 

To new-found methods and to com- 
pounds strange 

progress to eternity 

Commit to these waste blanks 

To take a new acquaintance 

on high to sing 

ignorance aloft to fly 

to the learned's wing 

No praise to thee 

To make me tongue-tied 

inferior far to his 

, your epitaph to make 

to all the world must die 

tongues to be your being 

married to my Muse 

enforced to seek anew 

And therefore to your fair 

That to his subject 

You to your beauteous 

To every hymn 

And to the most of praise 

whose love to you 

by spirits taught to write 

to whom thou gavest 

to set me light 

that to myself I do 

to thee I so belong 

To set a form 

my deeds to cross 

To linger out a purposed 

than high birth to me 

to steal thyself away 

Then need I not to fear 

state to me belongs 

Happy to have thy love, happy to 
die 

still seem love to me 

have power to hurt 

to temptation slow 

is to the summer sweet 

Though to itself 

turn to fair that eyes can see 

graces that to thee resort 

To truths translated

VENUS AND ADONIS 



Even as the sun with purple-colour'd face 
Had ta'en his last leave of the weeping morn, 
Eose-cheek'd Adonis hied him to the chase ; 
Hunting he loved, but love he laugh'd to scorn ; 
Sick-thoughted Venus makes amain unto him, 5 
And like a bold-faced suitor 'gins to woo him, 

' Thrice fairer than myself,' thus she began, 
' The field's chief flower, sweet above compare, 
Stain to all nymphs, more lovely than a man. 
More white and red than doves or roses are ; 10 
Nature that made thee, with herself at strife, 
Saith that the world hath ending with thy life. 

' Vouchsafe, thou wonder, to alight thy steed. 
And rein his proud head to the saddle-bow ; 
If thou wilt deign this favour, for thy meed 15 
A thousand honey secrets shalt thou know ; 
Here come and sit, where never serpent hisses. 
And, being set, I'll smother thee with kisses ; 

' And yet not cloy thy lips with loathed satiety, 
But rather famish them amid their plenty, 20 
Making them red and pale with fresh variety ; 
Ten kisses short as one, one long as twenty ; 
A summer's day will seem an hour but short. 
Being wasted in such time-beguiling sport.' 

With this she seizeth on his sweating palm, 25 
The precedent of pith and livelihood, 
And, trembling in her passion, calls it balm. 
Earth's sovereign salve to do a goddess good ; 
Being so enraged, desire doth lend her force 
Courageously to pluck him from his horse. 30 

Over one arm the lusty courser's rein. 

Under her other was the tender boy. 

Who blush'd and pouted in a dull disdain. 

With leaden appetite, unapt to toy ; 
She red and hot as coals of glowing fire, 35 
He red for shame, but frosty in desire. 

The studded bridle on a ragged bough 
Nimbly she fastens, — O, how quick is love ! — 
The steed is stalled up, and even now 
To tie the rider she begins to prove ; 40 

Backward she push'd him, as she would be 
thrust. 

And govern'd him in strength, though not in lust. 

So soon was she along as he was down. 
Each leaning on their elbows and their hips : 
Now doth she stroke his cheek, now doth he 
frown, 45 

And 'gins to chide, but soon she stops his lips, 
24 



And kissing speaks, with lustful language 

broken, 
' If thou wilt chide, thy lips shall never open.' 

He burns with bashful shame; she with her tears 
Doth quench the maiden burning of his cheeks ; 50 
Then with her windy sighs and golden hairs 
To fan and blow them dry again she seeks ; 

He saith she is immodest, blames her miss ; 

What follows more she murders with a kiss. 

Even as an empty eagle, sharp by fast, 55 

Tires with her beak on feathers, flesh, and bone. 
Shaking her wings, devouring all in haste. 
Till either gorge be stuff 'd or prey be gone ; 
Even so she kiss'd his brow, his cheek, his chin, 
And where she ends she doth anew begin. 60 

Forced to content, but never to obey, 
Panting he lies and breatheth in her face ; 
She feedeth on the steam as on a prey. 
And calls it heavenly moisture, air of grace; 64 
Wishing her cheeks were gardens full of flowers. 
So they were dew'd with such distilling showers. 

Look, how a bird lies tangled in a net. 

So fasten'd in her arms Adonis lies ; 

Pure shame and awed resistance made him fret, 

Which bred more beauty in his angry eyes ; 70 
Rain added to a river that is rank 
Perforce will force it overflow the bank. 

Still she entreats, and prettily entreats. 
For to a pretty ear she tunes her tale ; 
Still is he sullen, still he lours and frets, 75 

'Twixt crimson shame and anger ashy-pale ; 
Being red, she loves him best ; and being white, 
Her best is better'd with a more delight. 

Look how he can, she cannot choose but love ; 
And by her fair immortal hand she swears 80 
From his soft bosom never to remove. 
Till he take truce with her contending tears. 

Which long have rain'd, making her cheeks all 
wet; 

And one sweet kiss shall pay this countless debt. 

Upon this promise did he raise his chin, 85 

Like a dive-dapper peering through a wave, 
Who, being look'd on, ducks as quickly in ; 
So oflers he to give what she did crave ; 
But when her lips were ready for his pay. 
He winks, and turns his lips another way. 90 

Never did passenger in summer's heat 

More thirst for drink than she for this good turn.

VENUS AND ADONIS 



[Line 93-204. 



Her help she sees, but help she cannot get ; 

8he bathes in water, yet her fire must burn ; 
' O, pity,' 'gan she cry, ' flint-hearted boy ! 95 
'Tis but a kiss I beg ; why art thou coy ? 

' I have been woo'd, as I entreat thee now. 
Even by the stern and direful god of war, 
Whose sinewy neck in battle ne'er did bow. 
Who conquers where he comes in every jar ; 100 
Yet hath he been my captive and my slave. 
And begg'd for that which thou unask'd shalt 
have. 

•Over my altars hath he hung his lance. 
His batter'd shield, his uncontrolled crest, 
And for my sake hath learn'd to sport and dance. 
To toy, to wanton, dally, smUe and jest ; 106 

Scorning his churlish drum and ensign red. 
Making my arms his field, his tent my bed. 

' Thus he that overruled I oversway'd. 

Leading him prisoner in a red-rose chain ; 110 

Strong-tempered steel his stronger strength 

obey'd, 
Yet was he servile to my coy disdain. 
O, be not proud, nor brag not of thy might, 
For mastering her that foil'd the god of fight ! 

Touch but my lips with those fair lips of thine, — 
Though mine be not so fair, yet are they red, — 116 
The kiss shall be thine own as well as mine ; 
What see'st thou in the ground ? hold up thy head ; 

Look in mine eyeballs, there thy beauty lies ; 

Then why not lips on lips, since eyes in eyes? 120 

• Art thou ashamed to kiss ? then wink again. 
And I will wink ; so shall the day seem night ; 
Love keeps his revels where there are but twain ; 
Be bold to play, our sport is not in sight ; 

These blue-vein'd violets whereon we lean 125 
Never can blab, nor know not what we mean. 

* The tender spring upon thy tempting lip 
Shews thee unripe ; yet mayst thou well be tasted ; 
Make use of time, let not advantage slip ; 
Beauty within itself should not be wasted ; 130 

Fair flowers that are not gather'd in their prime 
Rot and consume themselves in little time. 

'Were I hard-favour'd, foul, or wrinkled-old, 
Ill-nurtured, crooked, churlish, harsh in voice, 
O'erworn, despised, rheumatic and cold, 135 

Thick-sighted, barren, lean, and lacking juice, 

Then mightst thou pause, for then I were not 
for thee ; 

But having no defects, why dost abhor me ? 

' Thou canst not see one wrinkle in my brow ; 
Mine eyes are grey, and bright, and quick ic 
turning ; 140 

My beauty as the spring doth yearly grow, 
My flesh is soft and plump, my marrow burning ; 
My smooth, moist hand, were it with thy hand 

felt. 
Would in thy palm dissolve, or seem to melt. 

' Bid me discourse, I will enchant thine ear, 145 
Or, like a fairy, trip upon the green, 
Or, like a nymph with long dishevell'd hair. 
Dance on the sands, and yet no footing seen ; 



Love is a spirit all compact of fire. 

Not gross to sink, but light, and will aspire. 150 

' Witness this primrose bank whereon I lie ; 
These forceless flowers like sturdy trees support 

me; 
Two strengthless doves will draw me through the 

sky, 
From morn till night, even where I list to sport me ; 
Is love so light, sweet boy, and may it be 155 
That thou shouldst think it heavy unto thee ? 

' Is thine own heart to thine own face affected? 

Can thy right hand seize love upon thy left? 

Then woo thyself, be of thyself rejected. 

Steal thine own freedom, and complain on theft. 
Narcissus so himself himself forsook, 161 

And died to kiss his shadow in the brook. 

' Torches are made to light, jewels to wear, 
Dainties to taste, fresh beauty for the use, 164 
Herbs for their smell, and sappy plants to bear ; 
Things growing to themselves are growth's abuse ; 

Seeds spring from seeds and beauty breedeth 
beauty ; 

Thou wast begot ; to get it is thy duty. 

' Upon the earth's increase why shouldst thou feed, 
Unless the earth with thy increase be fed ? 170 
By law of nature thou art bound to breed. 
That thine may live when thou thyself art dead : 
And so, in spite of death, thou dost survive, 
In that thy likeness still is left alive.' 

By this, the love-sick queen began to sweat, 175 
For, where they lay, the shadow had forsook them. 
And Titan, tired in the mid-day heat, 
With burning eye did hotly overlook them. 
Wishing Adonis had his team to guide, 
So he were like him and by Venus' side. 180 

And now Adonis, with a lazy spright, 

And with a heavy, dark, disliking eye. 

His louring brows o'erwhelming his fair sight. 

Like misty vapours when they blot the sky, 184 

Souring his cheeks, cries 'Fie, no more of love! 

The sun doth burn my face ; I must remove.' 

' Ay me,' quoth Venus, ' young, and so unkind ! 
What bare excuses makest thou to be gone ! 
I'll sigh celestial breath, whose gentle wind 
Shall cool the heat of this descending sun ; 190 

I'll make a shadow for thee of my hairs ; 

If they burn too, I'll quench them with my tears. 

' The sun that shines from heaven shines but warm, 
And, lo, I lie between that sun and thee: 
The heat I have from thence doth little harm, 195 
Thine eye darts forth the fire that burneth me ; 
And were I not immortal, life were done 
Between this heavenly and earthly sun. 

' Art thou obdurate, flinty, hard as steel ? 

Nay, more than flint, for stone at rain relenteth; 

Art thou a woman's son, and canst not feel 201 

Wliat 'tis to love? how want of love tormenteth? 
O, had thy mother borne so hard a mind. 
She had not brought forth thee, but died unkind. 



Line 205-318.] 



VENUS AND ADONIS 



371 



' What am I, that thou shouldst contemn me this? 

Or what great danger dwells upon my suit? 206 

What were thy lips the worse for one poor kiss? 

Speak, fair; but speak fair words, or else be mute; 
Give me one kiss, I'll give it thee again. 
And one for interest, if thou wilt have twain. 210 

' Fie, lifeless picture, cold and senseless stone, 
Well-painted idol, image dull and dead, 
Statue contenting but the eye alone. 
Thing like a man, but of no woman bred ! 

Thou art no man, though of a man's com- 
plexion, 215 

For men will kiss even by their own direction.' 

This said, impatience chokes her pleading tongue, 
And swelling passion doth provoke a pause ; 
Bed cheeks and fiery eyes blaze forth her wrong; 
Being judge in love, she cannot right her cause ; 

And now she weeps, and now she fain would 
speak, 221 

And now her sobs do her intendments break. 

Sometimes she shakes her head, and then his hand. 
Now gazeth she on him, now on the ground ; 
Sometimes her arms infold him like a band ; 225 
She would, he will not in her arms be bound ; 
And when from thence he struggles to be gone, 
She locks her lUy fingers one in one. 

' FondUng,' she saith, ' since I have hemm'd thee 
here 

Within the circuit of this ivory pale, 230 

I'll be a park, and thou shalt be my deer ; 

Feed where thou wilt, on mountain or in dale ; 
Graze on my Ups, and if those hills be dry, 
Stray lower, where the pleasant fountains lie. 

' Within this limit is relief enough, 235 

Sweet bottom-grass and high delightful plain, 
Round rising hillocks, brakes obscure and rough. 
To shelter thee from tempest and from rain ; 

Then be my deer, since I am such a park ; 

No dog shall rouse thee, though a thousand 
bark.' 240 

At this Adonis smiles as in disdain. 
That in each cheek appears a pretty dimple ; 
Love made those hollows, if himself were slain, 
He might be buried in a tomb so simple ; 
Foreknowing well, if there he came to Ue, 245 
Why, there Love lived, and there he could not 
die. 

These lovely caves, these round enchanting pits, 
Open'd their mouths to swallow Venus' liking. 
Being mad before, how doth she now for wits? 249 
Struck dead at first, what needs a second striking ? 
Poor queen of love, in thine own law forlorn. 
To love a cheek that smiles at thee in scorn ! 

Now which way shall she turn ? what shall she say ? 

Her words are done, her woes the more increasing ; 

The time is spent, her object will away, 255 

And from her twining arms doth urge releasing. 
' Pity,' she cries, ' some favour, some remorse !' 
Away he springs, and hasteth to his horse. 

But, lo, from forth a copse that neighbours by, 
A breeding jennet, lusty, young, and proud, 260 
Adonis' trampling courser doth espy, 
And forth she rushes, snorts and neighs aloud ; 



The strong-neck'd steed, being tied unto a tree, 
Breaketh his rein and to her straight goes he. 

Imperiously he leaps, he neighs, he bounds, 265 
And now his woven girths he breaks asunder ; 
The bearing earth with his hard hoof he wounds, 
Whose hollow womb resounds like heaven's thun- 
der; 
The iron bit he crush eth 'tween his teeth, 
Controlling what he was controlled with. 270 

His ears up-prick'd ; his braided hanging mane 
Upon his compass'd crest now stand on end ; 
His nostrils drink the air, and forth again. 
As from a furnace, vapours doth he send ; 
His eye, which scornfully glisters like fire, 275 
Shows his hot courage and his high desire. 

Sometime he trots, as if he told the steps. 
With gentle majesty and modest pride ; 
Anon he rears upright, curvets and leaps. 
As who should say ' Lo, thus my strength is tried ; 
And this I do to captivate the eye 281 

Of the fair breeder that is standing by.' 

What recketh he his rider's angry stir, 
His flattering ' Holla' or his ' Stand, I say ' ? 
What cares he now for curb or pricking spur? 285 
For rich caparisons or trapping gay ? 
He sees his love, and nothing else he sees. 
For nothing else with his proud sight, agrees. 

Look, when a painter would surpass the life. 
In limning out a well-proportion'd steed, 290 
His art with nature's workmanship at strife. 
As if the dead the living should exceed ; 
So did this horse excel a common one 
In shape, in courage, colour, pace, and bone. 

Eound-hoof'd, short-jointed, fetlocks shag and 

long, 295 

Broad breast, full eye, small head and nostril wide. 

High crest, short ears, straight legs and passing 

strong. 
Thin mane, thick tail, broad buttock, tender hide ; 
Look, what a horse should have he did not lack, 
Save a proud rider on so proud a back. 300 

Sometime he scuds far off", and there he stares ; 
Anon he starts at stirring of a feather ; 
To bid the wind a base he now prepares. 
And whe'r he run or fly they know not whether ; 
For through his mane and tail the high wind 
sings, 305 

Fanning the hairs, who wave like feather'd 
wings. 

He looks upon his love and neighs unto her ; 
She answers him, as if she knew his mind ; 308 
Being proud, as females are, to see him woo her. 
She puts on outward strangeness, seems unkind, 
Spurns at his love and scorns the heat he feels, 
Beating his kind embracements with her heels. 

Then, like a melancholy malcontent, 
He vails his tail, that, like a falling plume. 
Cool shadow to his melting buttock lent ; 31S 
He stamps, and bites the poor flies in his fume. 
His love, perceiving how he is enraged. 
Grew kinder, and his fury was assuaged.

VENUS AND ADONIS 



[Line 319-430- 



His testy master goeth about to take him ; 
When, lo, the unback'd breeder, full of fear, 320 
Jealous of catching, swiftly doth forsake him, 
With her the horse, and left Adonis there ; 
As they were mad, unto the wood they hie them. 
Out-stripping crows that strive to over-fly them. 

All swoln with chafing, down Adonis sits, 325 
Banning his boisterous and unruly beast ; 
And now the happy season once more fits, 
That love-sick Love by pleading may be blest ; 
For lovers say the heart hath treble wrong 
When it is barr'd the aidance of the tongue. 330 

An oven that is stopp'd, or river stay'd, 
Burneth more hotly, swelleth with more rage ; 
So of concealed sorrow may be said : 
Free vent of words love's fire doth assuage ; 
But when the heart's attorney once is mute, 335 
The client breaks, as desperate in his suit. 

He sees her coming, and begins to glow, 
Even as a dying coal revives with wind. 
And with his bonnet hides his angry brow, 
Looks on the dull earth with disturbed mind ; 340 
Taking no notice that she is so nigh, 
For all askance he holds her in his eye. 

O, what a sight it was, wistly to view 
How she came stealing to the wayward boy ! 
To note the fighting conflict of her hue, 345 

How white and red each other did destroy ! 
But now her cheek was pale, and by and by 
It flash'd forth fire, as lightning from the sky. 

Now was she just before him as he sat. 
And like a lowly lover down she kneels ; 850 

With one fair hand she heaveth up his hat. 
Her other tender hand his fair cheek feels -^ 

His tenderer cheek receives her soft hand's 
print, 

As apt as new-fall'n snow takes any dint. 

O, what a war of looks was then between them ! 355 

Her eyes petitioners to his eyes suing ; 

His eyes saw her eyes as they bad not seen them ! 

Her eyes woo'd still, his eyes disdain'd the wooing ; 

And aU this dumb play had his acts made plain 

With tears, which chorus-like her eyes did 

rain. 360 

Full gently now she takes him by the hand, 

A lily prison'd in a gaol of snow, 

Or ivory in an alabaster band ; 

So white a friend engirts so white a foe ; 
This beauteous combat, wilful and unwilling, 365 
Show'd like two silver doves that sit a-bilUng. 

Once more the engine of her thoughts began : 
fairest mover on this mortal round. 
Would thou wert as I am, and I a man, 369 

My heart all whole as thine, thy heart my wound ; 
For one sweet look thy help I would assure thee. 
The ugh nothing but my body's bane would cure 
thee.' 

Give me my hand,' saith he ; ' why dost thou feel 

it?' 
Give me my heart,' saith she, ' and thou shalt 

have it ; 



O, give it me, lest thy hard heart do steel it, 375 

And being steel'd, soft sighs can never grave it ; 

Then love's deep groans I never shall regard, 

Because Adonis' heart hath made mine hard.' 

' For shame,' he cries, ' let go, and let me go ; 

My day's delight is past, my horse is gone, 380 

And 'tis your fault I am bereft him so ; 

I pray you hence, and leave me here alone ; 
For all my mind, my thought, my busy care, 
Is how to get my palfrey from the mare.' 

Thus she replies: 'Thy palfrey, as he should, 385 
Welcomes the warm approach of sweet desire ; 
Affection is a coal that must be cool'd ; 
Else, suffered, it will set the heart on fire ; 388 

The sea hath bounds, but deep desire hath none ; 

Therefore no marvel though thy horse be gone. 

' How like a jade he stood, tied to the tree, 
Servilely master'd with a leathern rein ! 
But when he saw his love, his youth's fair fee, 
He held such petty bondage in disdain ; 394 

Throwing the base thong from his bending crest, 
Enfranchising his mouth, his back, his breast. 

' Who sees his true-love in her naked bed. 
Teaching the sheets a whiter hue than white. 
But, when his glutton eye so full hath fed, 
His other agents aim at like delight ? 400 

Who is so faint, that dares not be so bold 
To touch the fire, the weather being cold? 

' Let me excuse thy courser, gentle boy ; 
And learn of him, I heartily beseech thee, 
To take advantage on presented joy ; 405 

Though I were dumb, yet his proceedings teach 
thee; 
O, learn to love ; the lesson is but plain, 
And once made perfect, never lost again.' 

' I know not love,' quoth he, ' nor will not know it. 
Unless it be a boar, and then I chase it ; 410 

'Tis much to borrow, and I will not owe it ; 
My love to love is love but to disgrace it ; 
For I have heard it is a life in death. 
That laughs, and weeps, and all but with a 
breath. 

' Who wears a garment shapeless and unfinish'd? 
Who plucks the bud before one leaf put forth? 416 
If springing things be any jot diminish'd. 
They wither in their prime, prove nothing worth ; 
The colt that's back'd and burden'd being young 
Loseth his pride, and never waxeth strong. 420 

' You hurt my hand with wringing ; let us part, 
And leave this idle theme, this bootless chat ; 
Remove your siege from my unyielding heart ; 
To love's alarms it will not ope the gate ; 

Dismiss your vows, your feigned tears, your 
flattery ; 425 

For where a heart is hard they make no battery.' 

' What ! canst thou talk ?' quoth she, ' hast thou a 

tongue ? 
O, would thou hadst not, or I had no hearing ! 
Thy mermaid's voice hath done me double wrong ; 
I had my load before, now press'd with bearing ; 430

Melodious discord, heavenly tune harsh-sound- 
ing, 

Ear's deep-sweet music, and heart's deep-sore 
wounding. 

' Had I no eyes but ears, my ears would love 

That inward beauty and invisible ; 

Or were I deaf, thy outward parts would move 435 

Each part in me that were but sensible ; 
Though neither eyes nor ears, to hetir nor see, 
Yet should I be in love by touching thee. 

' Say, that the sense of feeling were bereft me, 
And that I could not see, nor hear, nor touch, 440 
And nothing but the very smell were left me. 
Yet would my love to thee be still as much ; 
For from the stilUtory of thy face excelling 
Comes breath perfumed, that breedeth love by 
smelling. 

' But, 0, what banquet wert thou to the taste, 445 
Being nurse and feeder of the other four ! 
Would they not wish the feast might ever last. 
And bid Suspicion double-lock the door, 
Lest Jealousy, that sour unwelcome guest. 
Should by his stealing in disturb the feast?' 450 

Once more the ruby-colour'd portal open'd. 
Which to his speech did honey passage yield ; 
Like a red morn that ever yet betoken'd 
Wreck to the seaman, tempest to the field. 
Sorrow to shepherds, woe unto the birds, 455 
Gusts and foul flaws to herdmen and to herds. 

This ill presage advisedly she marketh ; 
Even as the wind is hush'd before it raineth. 
Or as the wolf doth grin before he barketh, 
Or as the berry breaks before it staineth, 460 
Or like the deadly bullet of a gun. 
His meaning struck her ere his words begun. 

And at his look she flatly falleth down, 
For looks kill love, and love by looks reviveth ; 
A smile recures the wounding of a frown ; 465 
But blessed bankrupt, that by love so thriveth ! 
The silly boy, believing she is dead, 
Claps her pale cheek, till clapping makes it red; 

And all amazed brake off his late intent. 
For sharply he did think to reprehend her, 470 
Which cunning love did wittily prevent ; 
Fair fall the wit that can so well defend her ! 
For on the grass she lies as she were slain. 
Till his breath breatheth life in her again. 

He wrings her nose, he strikes her on the cheeks. 
He bends her fingers, holds her pulses hard, 476 
He chafes her lips ; a thousand ways he seeks 
To mend the hurt that his unkindness marr'd; 
He kisses her ; and she, by her good will. 
Will never rise, so he wiU kiss her still. 480 

The night of sorrow now is turn'd to day ; 
Her two blue windows faintly she up-lieaveth. 
Like the fair sun, when in his fresh array 
He cheers the morn, and all the earth relieveth ; 
And as the bright sun glorifies the sky, 485 
So is her face illumined with her eye ; 



Whose beams upon his hairless face are fix'd, 
As if from thence they borrow'd all their shine. 
Were never four such lamps together mix'd, 
Had not his clouded with his brow's repine ; 

But hers, which through the crystal tears gave 
light, 491 

Shone like the moon in water seen by night. 

'O, where am I?' quoth she; 'in earth or heaven. 
Or in the ocean drench'd, or in the fire 7 
What hour is this ? or morn or weary even ? 495 
Do I delight to die, or life desire? 

But now I lived, and life was death's annoy ; 

But now I died, and death was lively joy. 

' 0, thou didst kill me ; kill me once again ; 499 
Thy eyes' shrewd tutor, that hard heart of thine, 
Hath taught them scornful tricks, and such dis- 
dain. 
That they have murder'd this poor heart of mine ; 
And these mine eyes, true leaders to their queen, 
But for thy piteous lips no more had seen. 

' Long may they kiss each other, for this cure ! 505 
O, never let their crimson liveries wear ! 
And as they last, their verdure still endure. 
To drive infection from the dangerous year ! 
That the star-gazers, having writ on death, 509 
May say, the plague is banish'd by thy breath. 

' Pure lips, sweet seals in my soft lips imprinted, 
What bargains may I make, still to be sealing? 
To sell myself I can be well contented. 
So thou wilt buy, and pay, and use good dealing; 
Which purchase if thou make, for fear of slips 
Set thy seal-manual on my wax-red lips. 516 

' A thousand kisses buys my heart from me ; 
And pay them at thy leisure, one by one. 
What is ten hundred touches unto thee? 
Are they not quickly told and quickly gone? 520 

Say, for non-payment that the debt should 
double. 

Is twenty hundred kisses such a trouble ?' 

' Fair queen,' quoth he, ' if any love you owe me, 
Measure my strangeness with my unripe years ; 
Before I know myself, seek not to know me ; 525 
No fisher but the ungrown fry forbears ; 
The mellow plum doth fall, the green sticks fast, 
Or being early pluck'd is sour to taste. 

' Look, the world's comforter, with weary gait. 
His day's hot task hath ended in the west ; 530 
The owl, night's herald, shrieks, — 'tis very late ; 
The sheep are gone to fold, birds to their nest ; 

And coal-black clouds that shadow heaven's 
light 

Do summon us to part, and bid good-night. 

'Now let me say "Good-night," and so say you; 
If you will say so, you shall have a kiss.' 536 

' Good-night,' quoth she ; and, ere he says 'Adieu,' 
The honey fee of parting tender'd is ; 
Her arms do lend his neck a sweet embrace ; 53S 
Incorporate then they seem ; face grows to face. 

Till breathless he disjoin'd, and backward drew 
The heavenly moisture, that sweet coral mouth. 
Whose precious taste her thirsty lips well knew 
Whereon they surfeit, yet complain on drouth ;

He with her plenty pressed, she faint with 
dearth, 545 

Their lips together glued, fall to the earth. 

Now quick desire hath caught the yielding prey, 
And glutton-like she feeds, yet never fiUeth ; 
Her lips are conquerors, his lips obey, 
Paying what ransom the insulter willeth ; 550 

Whose vulture-thought doth pitch the price so 
high, 

That she will draw his lips' rich treasure dry. 

And having felt the sweetness of the spoil, 
With blindfold fury she begins to forage ; 554 
Her face doth reek and smoke, her blood doth boil. 
And careless lust stirs up a desperate courage. 
Planting oblivion, beating reason back, 
Forgetting shame's pure blush and honour's 
wrack. 

Hot, faint, and weary, with her hard embracing. 
Like a wild bird being tamed with too much hand- 
ling, 560 
Or as the fleet-foot roe that's tired with chasing, 
Or like the froward infant stUl'd with dandling. 
He now obeys, and now no more resisteth. 
While she takes all she can, not all she listeth. 

What wax so frozen but dissolves with tempering, 
And yields at last to every light impression ? 566 
Things out of hope are compass'd oft with ven- 
turing. 
Chiefly in love, whose leave exceeds commission ; 
Affection faints not like a pale-faced coward. 
But then woos best when most his choice is 
froward. 670 

When he did frown, O, had she then gave over, 
Buch nectar from his lips she had not suck'd. 
foul words and frowns must not repel a lover ; 
What though the rose have prickles, yet 'tis 
pluck'd ; 
Were beauty under twenty locks kept fast, 575 
Yet love breaks through, and picks them all at 
last. 

For pity now she can no more detain him ; 

The poor fool prays her that he may depart ; 

She is resolved no longer to restrain him ; 

Bids him farewell, and look well to her heart, 580 
The which, by Cupid's bow she doth protest, 
He carries thence incaged in his breast. 

'Sweet boy,' she says, 'this night PU waste in 

sorrow. 
For my sick heart commands mine eyes to watch. 
Tell me, love's master, shall we meet to-mor- 
row? 585 
Say, shall we? shall we? wilt thou make the 
match ?' 
He tells her, no ; to-morrow he intends 
To hunt the boar with certain of his friends. 

' The boar !' quoth she ; whereat a sudden pale. 
Like lawn being spread upon the blushing rose, 590 
Usurps her cheek ; she trembles at his tale. 
And on his neck her yoking arms she throws ; 
She sinketh down, still hanging by his neck. 
He on her belly falls, she on her back. 



Now is she in the very lists of love, 595 

Her champion mounted for the hot encounter ; 

All is imaginary she doth prove. 

He will not manage her, although he mount her ; 
That worse than Tantalus' is her annoy. 
To clip Elysium, and to lack her joy. 500 

Even as poor birds, deceived with painted grapes, 
Do surfeit by the eye and pine the maw. 
Even so she languisheth in her mishaps. 
As those poor birds that helpless berries saw. 604 
The warm eflfects which she in him finds missing 
She seeks to kindle with continual kissing. 

But all in vain ; good queen, it will not be ; 
She hath assay'd as much as may be proved ; 
Her pleading hath deserved a greater fee ; 
She's Love, she loves, and yet she is not loved. 610 

' Fie, fie,' he says, ' you crush me ; let me go ; 

You have no reason to withhold me so.' 

' Thou hadst been gone,' quoth she, ' sweet boy, ere 

this, 
But that thou told'st me thou wouldst hunt the 

boar. 
O, be advised ; thou know'st not what it is 615 
With javelin's point a churlish swine to gore. 
Whose tushes never sheathed he whetteth still, 
Like to a mortal butcher, bent to kill. 

' On his bow-back he hath a battle set 

Of bristly pikes, that ever threat his foes ; 620 

His eyes, like glow-worms, shine when he doth 

fret ; 
His snout digs sepulchres where'er he goes ; 

Being moved, he strikes whate'er is in his way; 

And whom he strikes his crooked tushes slay. 

' His brawny sides, with hairy bristles arm'd, 625 

Are better proof than thy spear's point can enter; 

His short thick neck cannot be easily harm'd ; 

Being ireful, on the lion he will venture ; 
The thorny brambles and embracing bushes, 629 
As fearful of him, part ; through whom he rushe& 

' Alas, he nought esteems that face of thine. 
To which Love's eyes pay tributary gazes ; 
Nor thy soft hands, sweet lips and crystal eyne, 
Whose full perfection all the world amazes ; 634 
But having thee at vantage, — wondrous dread ! — 
Would root these beauties as he roots the mead. 

' 0, let him keep his loathsome cabin still ; 

Beauty hath nought to do with such foul fiends ; 

Come not within his danger by thy will ; 6.39 

They that thrive well take counsel of their friends. 
When thou didst name the boar, not to dissemble, 
I fear'd thy fortune, and my joints did tremble. 

' Didst thou not mark my face? was it not white? 

Saw'st thou not signs of fear lurk in mine eye? 

Grew I not faint? and fell I not downright? 645 

Within my bosom, whereon thou dost lie. 
My boding heart pants, beats, and takes no rest. 
But, like an earthquake, shakes thee on my 
breast. 

' For where Love reigns, disturbing Jealousy 
Doth call himself Affection's sentinel ; 650 

Gives false alarms, suggesteth mutiny. 
And in a peaceful hour doth cry " Kill, kill 1"

Distempering gentle Love in his desire, 
As air and water do abate the fire. 

' This sour informer, this hate-breeding spy, 655 
This canker that eats up Love's tender spring, 
This carry-tale, dissentious Jealousy, 
That sometime true news, sometime false doth 
bring. 
Knocks at my heart, and whispers in mine ear. 
That if I love thee, I thy death should fear; 660 

' And more than so, presenteth to mine eye 
The picture of an angry-chafing boar. 
Under whose sharp fangs on his back doth lie 
An image like thyself, all stained with gore ; 
Whose blood upon the fresh flowers being shed 
Doth make them droop with grief and hang the 
head. 666 

'What should I do, seeing thee so indeed, 

That tremble at the imagination ? 

The thought of it doth make my faint heart bleed. 

And fear doth teach it divination ; 670 

I prophesy thy death, my living sorrow. 
If thou encounter with the boar to-morrow. 

' But if thou needs wilt hunt, be ruled by me ; 
Uncouple at the timorous flying hare, 
Or at the fox which lives by subtlety, 675 

Or at the roe which no encounter dare ; 
Pursue these fearful creatures o'er the downs, 
And on thy well-breath'd horse keep with thy 
hounds. 

•And when thou hast on foot the purblind hare, 
Mark the poor wretch, to overshoot his troubles. 
How he outruns the wind, and with what care 681 
He cranks and crosses with a thousand doubles ; 
The many musits through the which he goes 
Are Uke a labyrinth to amaze his foes. 

' Sometime he runs among a flock of sheep, 685 
To make the cunning hounds mistake their smell. 
And sometime where earth-delving conies keep. 
To stop the loud pursuers in their yell ; 
And sometime sorteth with a herd of deer : 
Danger deviseth shifts ; wit waits on fear ; 690 

' For there his smell with others being mingled, 
The hot scent-snufiing hounds are driven to doubt. 
Ceasing their clamorous cry till they have singled 
With much ado the cold fault cleanly out ; 
Then do they spend their mouths ; Echo replies. 
As if another chase were in the skies. 696 

• By this, poor Wat, far off upon a hill. 
Stands on his hinder legs with listening ear. 
To hearken if his foes pursue him still ; 
Anon their loud alarums he doth hear ; 700 

And now his grief may be compared well 
To one sore sick that hears the passing-bell. 

' Then shalt thou see the dew-bedabbled wretch 
Turn, and return, indenting with the way ; 
Each envious brier his weary legs doth scratch, 705 
Each shadow makes him stop, each murmur stay ; 
For misery is trodden on by many. 
And being low never relieved by any. 



' Lie quietly, and hear a little more ; 
Nay, do not struggle, for thou shalt not rise; 710 
To make thee hate the hunting of the boar. 
Unlike myself thou hear'st me moralize. 

Applying this to that, and so to so ; 

For love can comment upon every woe. 

'Where did I leave?' ' No matter where,' quothhe; 

'Leave me, and then the story aptly ends ; 716 

The night is spent.' ' Why, what of that ?' quofi 
she. 

' I am,' quoth he, ' expected of my friends ; 
And now 'tis dark, and going I shall fall.' 
' In night,' quoth she, ' desire sees best of all. 720 

' But if thou fall, 0, then imagine this, 

The earth, in love with thee, thy footing trips, 

And all is but to rob thee of a kiss. 

Rich preys make true men thieves; so do thy lips 
Make modest Dian cloudy and forlorn, 725 

Lest she should steal a kiss, and die forsworn. 

' Now of this dark night I perceive the reason : 
Cynthia for shame obscures her silver shine, 
Till forging Nature be condemn'd of treason, 729 
For stealing moulds from heaven that were divine ; 

Wherein she framed thee, in high heaven's 
despite, 

To shame the sun by day and her by night. 

' And therefore hath she bribed the Destinies 
To cross the curious workmanship of nature, 
To mingle beauty with infirmities 735 

And pure perfection with impure defeature ; 
Making it subject to the tyranny 
Of mad mischances and much misery ; 

' As burning fevers, agues pale and faint, 
Life-poisoning pestilence and frenzies wood, 740 
The marrow-eating sickness, whose attaint 
Disorder breeds by heating of the blood ; 
Surfeits, imposthumes, grief and damn'd despair. 
Swear Nature's death for framing thee so fair. 

' And not the least of all these maladies 745 

But in one minute's fight brings beauty under ; 
Both favour, savour, hue and qualities. 
Whereat the impartial gazer late did wonder, 
Are on the sudden wasted, thaw'd and done, 749 
As mountain snow melts with the mid-day sun 

' Therefore, despite of fruitless chastity. 
Love-lacking vestals and self-loving nuns. 
That on the earth would breed a scarcity 
And barren dearth of daughters and of sons, 
Be prodigal ; the lamp that burns by night 755 
Dries up his oil to lend the world his light. 

' What is thy body but a swallowing grave, 

Seeming to bury that posterity 

Which by the rights of time thou needs must have. 

If thou destroy them not in dark obscurity? 760 
If so, the world will hold thee in disdain, 
Sith in thy pride so fair a hope is slain. 

' So in thyself thyself art made away ; 
A mischief worse than civil home-bied strife, 
Or theirs whose desperate hands themselves do 
slay, 765 

Or butcher-sire that reaves his son cf life.

Foul-cankering rust the hidden treasure frets, 
But gold that's put to use more gold begets.' 

•Nay, then,' quoth Adon, 'you will fall again 
Into your idle over-handled theme ; 770 

The kiss I gave you is bestow'd in vain, 
And all in vain you strive against the stream ; 
For, by this black-faced night, desire's foul 

nurse. 
Your treatise makes me like you worse and 
worse. 

' If love have lent you twenty thousand tongues, 
And every tongue more moving than your own, 776 
Bewitching like the wanton mermaid's songs, 
Yet from mine ear the tempting tune is blown ; 
For know, my heart stands armed in mine ear, 
And will not let a false sound enter there ; 780 

' Lest the deceiving harmony should run 

Into the quiet closure of my breast ; 

And then my little heart were quite undone, 

In his bedchamber to be barr'd of rest. 
No, lady, no ; my heart longs not to groan, 785 
But soundly sleeps, while now it sleeps alone. 

' What have you urged that I cannot reprove ? 

The path is smooth that leadeth on to danger ; 

I hate not love, but your device in love 

That lends embracements unto every stranger. 790 
You do it for increase : O strange excuse, 
When reason is the bawd to lust's abuse ! 

' Call it not love, for Love to heaven is fled 
Since sweating Lust on earth usurp'd his name ; 
Under whose simple semblance he hath fed 795 
Upon fresh beauty, blotting it with blame ; 
Which the hot tyrant stains and soon bereaves, 
As caterpillars do the tender leaves. 

• Love comforteth like sunshine after rain. 
But Lust's effect is tempest after sun ; 800 

Love's gentle spring doth always fresh remain. 
Lust's winter comes ere summer half be done ; 

Love surfeits not. Lust like a glutton dies ; 

Love is all truth. Lust full of forged lies. 

' More I could tell, but more I dare not say ; 805 

The text is old, the orator too green. 

Therefore, in sadness, now I will away ; 

My face is full of shame, my heart of teen ; 
Mine ears, that to your wanton talk attended, 
Do burn themselves for having so offended.' 810 

With this, he breaketh from the sweet embrace 
Of those fair arms which bound him to her breast. 
And homeward through the dark lawnd runs 

apace ; 
Leaves Love upon her back deeply distress'd. 
Look, how a bright star shooteth from the sky, 
So glides he in the night from Venus' eye ; 816 

Which after him she darts, as one on shore 
Gazing upon a late-embarked friend, 
Till the wild waves will have him seen no more. 
Whose ridges with the meeting clouds contend ; 820 
So did the merciless and pitchy night 
Fold in the object that did feed her sight. 



Whereat amazed, as one that unaware 
Hath dropp'd a precious jewel in the flood. 
Or 'stonish'd as night-wanderers often are, 825 
Their light blown out in some mistrustful wood ; 
Even so confounded in the dark she lay, 
Having lost the fair discovery of her way. 

And now she beats her heart, whereat it groans, 
That all the neighbor caves, as seeming troubled, 
Make verbal repetition of her moans ; 831 

Passion on passion deeply is redoubled ; 
' Ay me !' she cries, and twenty times, ' Woe, woe !' 
And twenty echoes twenty times cry so. 

She, marking them, begins a wailing note, 835 

And sings extemporally a woeful ditty ; 

How love makes young men thrall, and old men 
dote; 

How love is wise in folly, foolish-witty ; 
Her heavy anthem still concludes in woe. 
And still the choir of echoes answer so. 840 

Her song was tedious, and outwore the night, 
For lovers' hours are long, though seeming short; 
If pleased themselves, others, they think, delight 
In such-like circumstance, with such-like sport ; 
Their copious stories, oftentimes begun, 845 
End without audience, and are never done. 

For who hath she to spend the night withal, 
But idle sounds resembling parasites ; 
Like shrill-tongued tapsters answering every call. 
Soothing the humour of fantastic wits? 850 

She says ' 'Tis so :' they answer all ' 'Tis so ;' 
And would say after her, if she said ' No.' 

Lo, here the gentle lark, weary of rest. 
From his moist cabinet mounts up on high, 
And wakes the morning, from whose silver breast 
The sun ariseth in his majesty ; 856 

Who doth the world so gloriously behold. 
That cedar-tops and hills seem burnish'd gold. 

Venus salutes him with this fair good-morrow ; 

' O thou clear god, and patron of all light, 860 

From whom each lamp and shining star doth bor- 
row 

The beauteous influence that makes him bright 
There lives a son, that suck'd an earthly mother, 
May lend thee light, as thou dost lend to other.' 

This said, she hasteth to a myrtle grove, 865 

Musing the morning is so much o'erworn, 
And yet she hears no tidings of her love ; 
She hearkens for his hounds and for his horn ; 
Anon she hears them chant it lustily. 
And all in haste she coasteth to the cry. 870 

And as she runs, the bushes in the way 
Some catch her by the neck, some kiss her face. 
Some twine about her thigh to make her stay ; 
She wildly breaketh from their strict embrace, 874 
Like a milch doe, whose swelling dugs do ache 
Hasting to feed her fawn hid in some brake. 

By this she hears the hounds are at a bay ; 
Whereat she starts, like one that spies an adder 
Wreathed up in fatal folds just in his way. 
The fear whereof doth make him shake and shud-

Even so the timorous yelping of the hounds 
Appals her senses and her spirit confounds. 

For now she knows it is no gentle chase, 
But the blunt boar, rough bear, or lion proud, 
Because the cry remaineth in one place, 885 

Where fearfully the dogs exclaim aloud ; 
Finding their enemy to be so curst. 
They all strain courtesy who shall cope him first. 

This dismal cry rings sadly in her ear. 
Through which it enters to surprise her heart ; 890 
Who, overcome by doubt and bloodless fear, 
With cold-pale weakness numbs each feeling part ; 

Like soldiers, when their captain once doth 
yield. 

They basely fly, and dare not stay the field. 

Thus stands she in a trembling ecstasy ; 895 

Till, cheering up her senses all dismay'd. 
She tells them 'tis a causeless fantasy. 
And childish error, that they are afraid ; 

Bids them leave quaking, bids them fear no 
more ; 899 

And with that word she spied the hunted boar ; 

Whose frothy mouth, hepainted all with red. 
Like mak and blood being mingled both together, 
A second fear through all her sinews spread. 
Which madly hurries her she knows not whither ; 
This way she runs, and now she will no further. 
But back retires to rate the boar for murther. 906 

A thousand spleens bear her a thousand ways ; 
She treads the path that she untreads again ; 
Her more than haste is mated with delays. 
Like the proceedings of a drunken brain, 910 

Full of respects, yet nought at all respecting; 

In hand with all things, nought at all effecting. 

Here kennell'd in a brake she finds a hound. 
And asks the weary caitiff for his master ; 
And their another licking of his wound, 915 
'Gainst venom'd sores the only sovereign plaster ; 
And here she meets another sadly scowling. 
To whom she speaks, and he replies with howl- 
ing. 

When he hath ceased his ill-resounding noise. 
Another flap-mouth'd mourner, black and grim. 
Against the welkin voUeys out his voice ; 921 
Another and another answer him. 
Clapping their proud tails to the ground below. 
Shaking their scratch'd ears, bleeding as they go. 

Look, how the world's poor people are amazed 
At apparitions, signs, and prodigies, 926 

Whereon with fearful eyes they long have gazed. 
Infusing them with dreadful prophecies ; 
So she at these sad signs draws up her breath, 
And, sighing it again, exclaims on Death. 930 

' Hard-favour'd tyrant, ugly, meagre, lean. 
Hateful divorce of love,' — thus chides she Death, — 
'Grim-grinning ghost, earth's worm, what dost 

thou mean 
To stifle beauty and to steal his breath. 
Who when he lived, his breath and beauty set 
Gloss on the rose, smell to the violet ? 936 



' If he be dead, — O no, it cannot be, 
Seeing his beauty, thou shouldst strike at it ; — 
O yes, it may ; thou hast no eyes to see. 
But hatefully at random dost thou hit. 940 

Thy mark is feeble age ; but thy false dart 
Mistakes that aim, and cleaves an infant's heart. 

' Hadst thou but bid beware, then he had spoke. 
And, hearing him, thy power had lost his power. 
The Destinies will curse thee for this stroke ; 945 
They bid thee crop a weed, thou pluck'st a flower ; 
Love's golden arrow at him should have fled. 
And not Death's ebon dart, to strike him dead. 

' Dost thou drink tears, that thou provokest such 

weeping ? 
What may a heavy groan advantage thee? 950 
Why hast thou cast into eternal sleeping 
Those eyes that taught all other eyes to see? 
Now Nature cares not for thy mortal vigour. 
Since her best work is ruin'd with thy rigour.' 

Here overcome, as one full of despair, 935 

She vail'd her eyelids, who, like sluices, stopp'd 
The crystal tide that from her two cheeks fair 
In the sweet channel of her bosom dropp'd ; 

But through the flood-gates breaks the silver 
rain, 

And with his strong course opens them again. 961) 

O, how her eyes and tears did lend and borrow ! 

Her eyes seen in the tears, tears in her eye ; 

Both crystals, where they view'd each other's 
sorrow. 

Sorrow that friendly sighs sought still to dry ; 
But like a stormy day, now wind, now rain, 965 
Sighs dry her cheeks, tears make them wet again. 

Variable passions throng her constant woe, 
As striving who should best become her grief ; 
All entertain'd, each passion labours so 
That every present sorrow seemeth chief, 970 
But none is best ; then join they all together, 
Like many clouds consulting for foul weather. 

By this, far off she hears some huntsman holloa ; 

A nurse's song ne'er pleased her babe so well ; 

The dire imagination she did follow 975 

This sound of hope doth labour to expel ; 
For now reviving joy bids her rejoice. 
And flatters her it is Adonis' voice. 

Whereat her tears began to turn their tide. 
Being prison'd in her eye like pearls in glass; 980 
Yet sometimes falls an orient drop beside. 
Which her cheek melts, as scorning it should pass 
To wash the foul face of the sluttish ground. 
Who is but drunken when she seemeth drown'd. 

O hard-believing love, how strange it seems 985 

Not to believe, and yet too credulous ! 

Thy weal and woe are both of them extremes ; 

Despair, and hope, makes thee ridiculous ; 9S8 
The one doth flatter thee in thoughts unlikely, 
In likely thoughts the other kills thee quickly. 

Now she unweaves the web that she hath wrought j 
Adonis lives, and Death is not to blame ; 
It was not she that call'd him all to nought ; 
Now she adds honours to his hateful name ;

She clepes him king of graves, and grave 
kings. 



kings. 
Imperious supreme of all mortal things, 

'No, no,' quoth she, 'sweet Death, I did but jest; 
Yet pardon me, I felt a kind of fear 
Whenas I met the boar, that bloody beast, 
Which knows no pity, but is still severe ; 1000 
Then, gentle shadow, — truth I must confess, — 
I rail'd on thee, fearing my love's decease. 

' 'Tis not my fault ; the boar provoked my tongue ; 

Be wreak'd on him, invisible commander ; 1004 

'Tis he, foul creature, that hath done thee wrong; 

I did but act, he's author of thy slander ; 
Grief hath two tongues ; and never woman yet 
Could rule them both without ten women's wit.' 



Thus hoping that Adonis is alive. 
Her rash suspect she doth extenuate ; 1010 

And that his beauty may the better thrive, 
With Death she humbly doth insinuate ; 
Tells him of trophies, statues, tombs, and stories 
His victories, his triumphs and his glories. 

' O Jove,' quoth she, ' how much a fool was I 
To be of such a weak and silly mind 1016 

To wail his death who lives and must not die 
Till mutual overthrow of mortal kind ! 
For he being dead, with him is beauty slain, 
And, beauty dead, black chaos comes again. 1020 

' Fie, fie, fond love, thou art so full of fear 

As one with treasure laden, hemm'd with thieves ; 

Trifles unwitnessed with eye or ear 

Thy coward heart with false bethinking grieves.' 
Even at this word she hears a merry horn, 1025 
Whereat she leaps that was but late forlorn. 

As falcons to the lure, away she flies ; 

The grass stoops not, she treads on it so light ; 

And in her haste unfortunately spies 

The foul boar's conquest on her fair delight; 1030 
Which seen, her eyes, as murder'd with the view, 
Like stars ashamed of day, themselves with- 
drew; 

Or, as the snail, whose tender horns being hit. 
Shrinks backward in his shelly cave with pain. 
And there all smother'd up in shade doth sit, 1035 
Long after fearing to creep forth again ; 
So, at his bloody view, her eyes are fled 
Into the deep-dark cabins of her head ; 

Where they resign their office and their light 
To the disposing of her troubled brain ; 1040 

Who bids them still consort with ugly night. 
And never wound the heart with looks again ; 
Who, like a king perplexed in his throne. 
By their suggestion gives a deadly groan. 

Whereat each tributary subject quakes ; 1045 
As when the wind, imprison'd in the ground, 
Struggling for passage, earth's foundation shakes. 
Which with cold terror doth men's minds con- 
found. 
This mutiny each part doth so surprise. 
That from their dark beds once more leap her 
eyes; 1050 



And being open'd threw unwilling light 

Upon the wide wound that the boar had trench'd 

In his soft flank ; whose wonted lily white 

With purple tears, that his wound wept, was 

drench'd. I0o4 

No flower was nigh, no grass, herb, leaf, or weed, 

But stole his blood and seem'd with him to bleed. 

This solemn sympathy poor Venus noteth ; 
Over one shoulder doth she hang her head ; 
Dumbly she passions, franticly she doteth ; 
She thinks he could not die, he is not dead ; 1060 

Her voice is stopp'd, her joints forget to bow ; 

Her eyes are mad that they have wept till now. 

Upon his hurt she looks so steadfastly 
That her sight dazzling makes the wound seem 
three ; 1064 

And then she reprehends her mangling eye, 
That makes more gashes where no breach should 
be; 
His face seems twain, each several limb is dou- 
bled; 
For oft the eye mistakes, the brain being trou- 
bled. 

' My tongue cannot express my grief for one. 
And yet,' quoth she, ' behold two Adons dead! 1070 
My sighs are blown away, my salt tears gone. 
Mine eyes are turn'd to tire, my heart to lead ; 
Heavy heart's lead, melt at mine eyes' red fire I 
So shall I die by drops of hot desire. 

'Alas, poor world, what treasure hast thou lost ! 1075 
What face remains alive that's worth the viewing? 
Whose tongue is music now ? what canst thou boast 
Of things long since, or any thing ensuing? 

The flowers are sweet, their colours fresh and 
trim ; 1079 

But true-sweet beauty lived and died with him. 

' Bonnet nor veil henceforth no creature wear ! 

Nor sun nor wind will ever strive to kiss you ; 

Having no fair to lose, you need not fear ; 

The sun doth scorn you, and the wind doth hisa 
you ; 1084 

But when Adonis lived, sun and sharp air 
Lurk'd like two thieves, to rob him of his fair 

'And therefore would he put his bonnet on. 
Under whose brim the gaudy sun would peep ; 
The wind would blow it off, and, being gone, 
Play with his locks ; then would Adonis weep ; 1090 
And straight, in pity of his tender years. 
They both would strive who first should dry Ms 
tears. 

' To see his face the lion walk'd along 
Behind some hedge, because he would not fear him; 
To recreate himself when he hath sung, 1095 

The tiger would be tame and gently hear him ; 
If he had spoke, the wolf would leave his prey, 
And never fright the silly lamb that day. 

' When he beheld his shadow in the brook, 
The fishes spread on it their golden gills ; 110« 
When he was by, the birds such pleasure took. 
That some would sing, some other iu their bills

Would bring him mulberries and. ripe-red cher- 
ries ; 

He fed them with his sight, they him with ber- 
ries. 

'But this foul, grim, and urchin-snouted boar, 1105 
Whose downward eye still looketh for a grave, 
Ne'er saw the beauteous livery that he wore ; 
Witness the entertainment that he gave ; 
If he did see his face, why then I know 1109 
He thought to kiss him, and hath kOl'd him so. 

' 'Tis true, 'tis true ; thus was Adonis slain ; 
He ran upon the boar with his sharp spear. 
Who did not whet his teeth at him again. 
But by a kiss thought to persuade him there ; 
And nuzzling in his flank, the loving swine 1115 
Sheathed unaware the tusk in his soft groin. 

' Had I been tooth'd like him, I must confess. 
With kissing him I should have kill'd him first ; 
But he is dead, and never did he bless 
My youth with his ; the more am I accurst.' 1120 
With this, she falleth in the place she stood, 
And stains her face with his congealed blood. 

She looks upon his lips, and they are pale ; 

She takes him by the hand, and that is cold ; 

She whispers in his ears a heavy tale, 1125 

As if they heard the woeful words she told ; 
She lifts the coffer-lids that close his eyes. 
Where, lo, two lamps, burnt out, in darkness lies ; 

Two glasses, where herself herself beheld 
A thousand times, and now no more reflect ; 1130 
Their virtue lost, wherein they late excell'd, 
And every beauty robb'd of his effect ; 
' Wonder of time,' quoth she, ' this is my spite. 
That, thou being dead, the day should yet be 
light. 

' Since thou art dead, lo, here I prophesy, 1135 
Sorrow on love hereafter shall attend ; 
It shall be waited on with jealousy. 
Find sweet beginning but unsavoury end ; 
Ne'er settled equally, but high or low, 1139 
That all love's pleasure shall not match his woe. 

' It shall be fickle, false, and full of fraud ; 

Bud, and be blasted, in a breathing while; 

The bottom poison, and the top o'erstraw'd 

With sweets that shall the truest sight beguile ; 
The strongest body shall it make most weak, 1145 
Stri ke the wise dumb, and teach the fool to speak. 

' It shall be sparing and too full of riot, 
Teaching dt crepit age to tread the measures; 
The staring rufiian shall it keep in quiet, 
Pluck down the rich, enrich the poor with treas- 
ures ; 1150 



It shall be raging-mad, and sUly-mild, 
Make the young old, the old become a chUd. 

' It shall suspect where is no cause of fear ; 

It shall not fear where it should most mistrust ; 

It shall be merciful and too severe, 1155 

And most deceiving when it seems most just ; 
Perverse it shall be where it shows most toward, 
Put fear to valour, courage to the coward. 

' It shall be cause of war and dire events, 
And set dissension 'twixt the son and sire ; 1160 
Subject and servile to all discontents. 
As dry combustions matter is to fire ; 
Sith in his prime death doth my love destroy, 
They that love best their loves shall not enjoy.' 

By this the boy that by her side lay kill'd 1165 

Was melted like a vapour from her sight. 

And in his blood, that on the ground lay spill'd, 

A purple flower sprung up, chequer'd with white, 

Resembling well his pale cheeks and the blood 

Which in round drops upon their whiteness 

stood. 1170 

She bows her head, the new-sprung flower to smell, 

Comparing it to her Adonis' breath ; 

And says, within her bosom it shall dwell. 

Since he himself is reft from her by death ; 
She crops the stalk, and in the breach appears 
Green-dropping sap, which she compares to 
tears. 1176 

' Poor flower,' quoth she, ' this was thy father's 
guise, — 

Sweet issue of a more sweet-smelling sire, — 

For every little grief to wet his eyes ; 

To grow unto himself was his desire, 1180 

And so 'tis thine ; but know, it is as good 
To wither in my breast as in his blood. 

' Here was thy father's bed, here in my breast ; 

Thou art the next of blood, and 'tis thy right ; 

Lo, in this hollow cradle take thy rest ; 1185 

My throbbing heart shall rock thee day and night ; 
There shall not be one minute in an hour 
Wherein I will not kiss my sweet love's flower.' 

Thus weary of the world, away she hies, 1189 
And yokes her silver doves ; by whose swift aid 
Their mistress, mounted, through the empty skies 
In her light chariot quickly is convey'd ; 

Holding their course to Paphos, where theiz 
queen 

Means to immure herself and not be seen. 



THE RAPE OF LUCRECE 



Fbom the besieged Ardea all in post, 
Borne by the trustless wings of false desire, 
Lust-breatlied Tarquin leaves the Roman host, 
And to Collatium bears the lightless fire 
Which, in pale embers hid, lurks to aspire 5 

And girdle with embracing flames the waist 
Of CoUatine's fair love, Lucrece the chaste. 

Haply that name of 'chaste' unhappUy set 
This bateless edge on his keen appetite ; 
When Collatine unwisely did not let 10 

To praise the clear unmatched red and white 
Which triumph'd in that sky of his delight. 

Where mortal stars, as bright as heaven's beau- 
ties. 

With pure aspects did him peculiar duties. 

For he the night before, in Tarquin's tent, 15 
Unlock'd the treasure of his happy state ; 
What priceless wealth the heavens had him lent 
In the possession of his beateous mate ; 
Reckoning his fortune at such high-proud rate. 
That kings might be espoused to more fame, 20 
But king nor peer to such a peerless dame. 

O happiness enjoy'd but of a few ! 
And, if possess'd, as soon decay'd and done 
As is the morning's silver-melting dew 
Against the golden splendour of the sun ! 25 

An expired date, cancell'd ere well begun : 
Honour and beauty, in the owner's arms. 
Are weakly fortress'd from a world of harms. 

Beauty itself doth of itself persuade 
The eyes of men without an orator ; 30 

What needeth then apologies be made, 
To set forth that which is so singular? 
Or why is Collatine the publisher 
Of that rich jewel he should keep unknown 
From thievish ears, because it is his own ? 35 

Perchance his boast of Lucrece' sovereignty 
Suggested this proud issue of a king ; 
For by our ears our hearts oft tainted be ; 
Perchance that envy of so rich a thing, 
Braving compare, disdainfully did sting 40 

His high-pitch'd thoughts, that meaner men 
should vaunt 

That golden hap which their superiors want. 

But some untimely thought did instigate 
His all-too-timeless speed, if none of those ; 
His honour, his affairs, his friends, his state, 45 
Neglected all, with swift intent he goes 
To quench the coal which in his liver glows. 
O rash-false heat, wrapp'd in repentant cold. 
Thy hasty spring still blasts, and ne'er grows 
old! 
380 



When at Collatium this false lord arrived, 50 
Well was he welcomed by the Roman dame, 
Within whose face beauty and virtue strived 
Which of them both should underprop her fame ; 
Wlien virtue bragg'd, beauty would blush for 
shame ; 
When beauty boasted blushes, in despite 55 
Virtue would stain that o'er with silver white. 

But beauty, in that white intituled. 
From Venus' doves doth challenge that fair field ; 
Then virtue claims from beauty beauty's red, 
Which virtue gave the golden age to gild 60 

Their silver cheeks, and call'd it then their shield > 
Teaching them thus to use it in the fight, 
When shame assail'd, the red should fence the 
white. 

This heraldry in Lucrece' face was seen. 
Argued by beauty's red and virtue's white ; 65 
Of cither's colour was the other queen. 
Proving from world's minority their right ; 
Yet their ambition makes them still to fight ; 
The sovereignty of either being so great. 
That oft they interchange each other's seat. 70 

This silent war of lilies and of roses. 
Which Tarquin view'd in her fair face's field, 
In their pure ranks his traitor eye encloses ; 
Where, lest between them both it should be kill'd, 
The coward captive vanquished doth yield 75 
To those two armies, that would let him go 
Bather than triumph in so false a foe. 

Now thinks he that her husband's shallow tongue, 
The niggard prodigal that praised her so, 
In that high task hath done her beauty wrong, 80 
Which far exceeds his barren skill to show ; 
Therefore that praise which Collatine doth owe 
Enchanted Tarquin answers with surmise, 
In silent wonder of still-gazing eyes. 

This earthly saint, adored by this devil, 85 

Little suspecteth the false worshipper ; 

For unstain'd thoughts do seldom dream on evil ; 

Birds never limed no secret bushes fear ; 

So guiltless she securely gives good cheer 
And reverend welcome to her princely guest, 90 
Whose inward ill no outward harm express'd ; 

For that he colour'd with his high estate. 
Hiding base sin in plaits of majesty ; 
That nothing in him seem'd inordinate. 
Save sometime too much wonder of his eye, 95 
Which, having all, all could not satisfy ; 
But, poorly rich, so wanteth in his store, 
That, cloy'd with much, he pineth still for more.

But she, that never coped with stranger eyes, 
Could pick no meaning from their parling looks, 
Nor read the subtle-shining secrecies 101 

Writ in the glassy margents of such books ; 
She touch'd no unknown baits, nor fear'd no 
hooks ; 
Nor could she moralize his wanton sight, 
More than his eyes were open'd to the light. 105 

He stories to her ears her husband's fame, 
Won in the fields of fruitful Italy ; 
And decks with praises CoUatine's high name. 
Made glorious by his manly chivalry 
AVith bruised arms and wreaths of victory ; 110 
Her joy with heaved-up hand she doth express. 
And wordless so greets heaven for his success. 

Far from the purpose of his coming hither. 
He makes excuses for his being there ; 
No cloudy show of stormy blustering weather 
Doth yet in his fair welkin once appear ; 116 

Till sable Night, mother of dread and fear. 
Upon the world dim darkness doth display. 
And in her vanity prison stows the day. 

For then is Tarquin brought unto his bed, 120 
Intending weariness with heavy spright ; 
For after supper long he questioned 
With modest Lucrece, and wore out the night ; 
Now leaden slumber with life's strength doth 
fight; 
And every one to rest themselves betake, 125 
Save thieves and cares and troubled minds that 
wake. 

As one of which doth Tarquin lie revolving 
The sundry dangers of his will's obtaining ; 
Yet ever to obtain his will resolving, 
Though weak-built hopes persuade him to ab- 
staining ; 130 
Despair to gain doth trafiic oft for gaining, 
And when great treasure is the meed proposed, 
Though death be adjunct, there's no death sup- 
posed. 

Those that much covet are with gain so fond 
That what they have not, that which they possess, 
They scatter and unloose it from their bond, 136 
And so, by hoping more, they have but less ; 
Or, gaining more, the profit of excess 
Is but to surfeit, and such griefs sustain, 
That they prove bankrupt in this poor-rich gain. 

The aim of all is but to nurse the life 141 

With honour, wealth, and ease, in waning age ; 
And in this aim there is such thwarting strife 
That one for all or all for one we gage ; 
As life for honour in fell battle's rage ; 145 

Honour for wealth ; and oft that wealth doth cost 
The death of all, and all together lost. 

So that in venturing ill we leave to be 
The things we are for that which we expect ; 
And this ambitious, foul infirmity, 150 

In having much, torments us with defect 
Of that we have ; so then we do neglect 
The thing we have, and, all for want of wit. 
Make something nothing by augmenting it. 



Such hazard now must doting Tarquin make, 
Pawning his honor to obtain his lust ; 156 

And for himself himself he must forsake ; 
Then where is truth, if there be no self-trust? 
When shall he think to find a stranger just, 
When he himself himself confounds, betrays 
To slanderous tongues and wretched hateful 
days? 161 

Now stole upon the time the dead of night, 
When heavy sleep had closed up mortal eyes ; 
No comfortable star did lend his light, 164 

No noise but owls' and wolves' death-boding cries ; 
Now serves the season that they may surprise 
The silly lambs : pure thoughts are dead and still, 
While lust and murder wakes to stain and kiU. 

And now this lustful lord leap'd from his bed, 
Throwing his mantle rudely o'er his arm ; 170 
Is madly toss'd between desire and dread ; 
Th' one sweetly flatters, th' other feareth harm ; 
But honest fear, bewitch'd with lust's foul charm, 
Doth too too oft betake him to retire. 
Beaten away by brain-sick rude desire. 175 

His falchion on a flint he softly smiteth. 
That from the cold stone sparks of fire do fly ; 
Whereat a waxen torch forthwith he lighteth, 
Which must be lode-star to his lustful eye ; 
And to the flame thus speaks advisedly : 180 

' As from this cold flint I enforced this fire, 
So Lucrece must I force to my desire.' 

Here pale with fear he doth premeditate 
The dangers of his loathsome enterprise, 
And in his inward mind he doth debate 185 

What following sorrow may on this arise ; 
Then looking scornfully he doth despise 
His naked armour of still-slaughter'd lust, 
And justly thus controls his thoughts unjust: 

' Fair torch, burn out thy light, and lend it not 
To darken her whose light excelleth thine ; 191 
And die, unhallow'd thoughts, before you blot 
With your uncleanness that which is divine ; 
Offer pure incense to so pure a shrine ; 
Let fair humanity abhor the deed 195 

That spots and stains love's modest snow-white 
weed. 

' shame to knighthood and to shining arms ! 

O foul dishonour to my household's grave ! 

O impious act, including all foul harms ! 

A martial man to be soft fancy's slave ! 200 

True valour still a true respect should have ; 
Then my digression is so vile, so base. 
That it will live engraven in my face. 

' Yea, though I die, the scandal will survive. 
And be an eye-sore in my golden coat ; 205 

Some loathsome dash the herald will contrive, 
To cipher me how fondly I did dote ; 
That my posterity, shamed with the note. 
Shall curse my bones, and hold it for no sin 
To wish that I their father had not bin. 210 

' What win I, if I gain the thing I seek ? 
A dream, a breath, a froth of fleeting joy. 
Who buys a minute's mirth to wail a week? 
Or sells eternity to get a toy? 214 

For one sweet grape who will the vine destroy?

• Shameful it is ; ay, if the fact be known ; 
Hateful it is ; there is no hate in loving ; 240 
I'll beg her love ; but she is not her own ; 

The worst is but denial and reproving ; 

My will is strong, past reason's weak removing. 
Who fears a sentence or an old man's saw 
Shall by a painted cloth be kept in awe.' 245 

Thus graceless holds he disputation 
'Tween frozen conscience and hot-burning will, 
And with good thoughts makes dispensation, 
Urging the worser sense for vantage stDl ; 
Which in a moment doth confound and kill 250 
All pure eflects, and doth so far proceed 
That what is vile shows Hke a virtuous deed. 

Quoth he, ' She took me kindly by the hand. 
And gazed for tidings in my eager eyes, 
Fearing some hard news from the warlike band. 
Where her beloved Collatinus lies. 256 

O, how her fear did make her colour rise! 
First red as roses that on lawn we lay, 
Then white as lawn, the roses took away. 

'And how her hand, in my hand being lock'd, 260 
Forced it to tremble with her loyal fear ! 
Which struck her sad, and then it faster rock'd, 
Until her husband's welfare she did hear ; 
Whereat she smiled with so sweet a cheer 
That had Narcissus seen her as she stood 265 
Self-love had never drown'd him in the flood. 

' Why hunt I then for colour or excuses ? 

All orators are dumb when beauty pleadeth ; 

Poor wretches have remorse in poor abuses ; 

Love thrives not in the heart that shadows dread- 
eth ; 270 

Afiection is my captain, and he leadeth ; 
And when his gaudy banner is display'd, 
The coward fights, and will not be dismay'd. 



'Then, childish fear, avaunt ! debating, die ! 
Eespect and reason wait on wrinkled age ! 275 
My heart shall never countermand mine eye ; 
Sad pause and deep regard beseems the sage ; 
My part is youth, and beats these from the stage ; 

Desire my pilot is, beauty my prize ; 

Then who fears sinking where such treasuit 
lies?' 280 

As corn o'ergrown by weeds, so heedful fear 

Is almost choked by unresisted lust. 

Away he steals with open listening ear. 

Full of foul hope and full of fond mistrust ; 

Both which, as servitors to the unjust, 285 

So cross him with their opposite persuasion. 
That now he vows a league, and now invasion. 

Within his thought her heavenly image sits, 
And in the self-same seat sits Collatine ; 
That eye which looks on her confounds his wits ; 
That eye which him beholds, as more divine, 291 
Unto a view so false will not incline ; 
But with a pure appeal seeks to the heart. 
Which once corrupted takes the worser part ; 

And therein heartens up his servile powers, 295 
Who, flatter'd by their leader's jocund show, 
Stuff up his lust, as minutes fill up hours ; 
And as their captain, so their pride doth grow, 
Paying more slavish tribute than they owe. 
By reprobate desire thus madly led, 300 

The Eoman lord marcheth to Lucrece' bed. 

The locks between her chamber and his will, 
Each one by him enforced, retires his ward ; 
But, as they open, they all rate his ill, 304 

Which drives the creeping thief to some regard ; 
The threshold grates the door to have him heard ; 

Night-wandering weasels shriek to see him 
there ; 

They fright him, yet he still pursues his fear 

As each unwilling portal yields him way. 
Through little vents and crannies of the place 310 
The wind wars with his torch to make him stay, 
And blows the smoke of it into his face. 
Extinguishing his conduct in this case ; 
But his hot heart, which fond desire doth scorch, 
Pufis forth another wind that fires the torch ; 313 

And being lighted, by the light he spies 
Lucretia's glove, wherein her needle sticks ; 
He takes it from the rushes where it lies, 
And griping it, the needle his finger pricks ; 319 
As who should say, ' This glove to wanton tricks 

Is not inured ; return again in haste ; 

Thou see'st our mistress' ornaments are chaste.' 

But all these poor forbiddings could not stay him ; 
He in the worst sense construes their denial ; 
The doors, the wind, the glove, that did delay him, 
He takes for accidental things of trial ; 328 

Or as those bars which stop the hourly dial. 
Who with a lingering stay his course doth let, 
Till every minute pays the hour his debt. 

' So, so,' quoth he, ' these lets attend the time, 330 
Like little frosts that sometime threat the spring,

THE RAPE OF LUCRECE

To add a more rejoicing to the prime, 

And give the sneaped birds more cause to sing, 

Pain pays the income of each precious thing ; 

Huge rocks, high winds, strong pirates, shelves, 
and sands, 335 

The merchant fears, ere rich at home he lands.' 

Now is he come unto the chamber door. 
That shuts him from the heaven of his thought, 
Which with a yielding latch, and with no more, 
Hath barr'd him from the blessed thing he sought. 
So from himself impiety hath wrought, 841 

That for his prey to pray he doth begin. 
As if the heavens should countenance his sin. 

But in the midst of his unfruitful prayer, 
Having solicited the eternal power 345 

That his foul thoughts might compass his fair fair. 
And they would stand auspicious to the hour. 
Even there he starts: quoth he 'I must deflower; 

The powers to whom I pray abhor this fact ; 

How can they then assist me in the act? 350 

' Then Love and Fortune be my gods, my guide ! 

My will is back'd with resolution ; 

Thoughts are but dreams till their effects be tried ; 

The blackest sin is clear'd with absolution ; 354 

Against love's fire fear's frost hath dissolution. 
The eye of heaven is out, and misty night 
Covers the shame that follows sweet delight.' 

This said, his guilty hand pluck'd up the latch. 
And with his knee the door he opens wide. 
The dove sleeps fast that this night-owl will catch ; 
Thus treason works ere traitors be espied. 361 
Who sees the lurking serpent steps aside ; 
But she, sound sleeping, fearing no such thing, 
Lies at the mercy of his mortal sting. 

Into the chamber wickedly he stalks, 365 

And gazeth on her yet unstained bed. 
The curtains being close, about he walks, 
Rolling his greedy eyeballs in his head ; 
By their high treason is his heart misled ; 

Which gives the watch-word to his hand full 
soon 370 

To draw the cloud that hides the silver moon. 

Look, as the fair and fiery-pointed sun. 
Rushing from forth a cloud, bereaves our sight ; 
Even so, the curtain drawn, his eyes begun 
To wink, being blinded with a greater Ught; 
Whether it is that she reflects so bright, 376 

That dazzleth them, or else some shame sup- 
posed ; 
But blind they are, and keep themselves en- 
closed. 

O, had they in that darksome prison died ! 
Then had they seen the period of their ill ; 380 
Then Collatine again, by Lucrece' side. 
In his clear bed might have reposed still ; 
But they must ope, this blessed league to kill ; 
And holy-thoughted Lucrece to their sight 
Must sell her joy, her life, her world's delight. 

Her lily hand her rosy cheek lies under, 386 

C!ozening the pillow of a lawful kiss ; 
Who, therefore angry, seems to part in sunder, 
Swelling on either side to want his bliss ; 
Between whose hills her head entombed is ; 890 



Where, like a virtuous monument, she lies, 
To be admired of lewd unhallowed eyes. 

Without the bed her other fair hand was, 
On the green coverlet ; whose perfect white 
Show'd like an April daisy on the grass, 395 

With pearly sweat, resembling dew of night. 
Her eyes, like marigolds, had sheathed their light, 
And canopied in darkness sweetly lay, 
TUl they might open to adorn the day. 

Her hair, like golden threads, play'd with her 
breath ; 400 

modest wantons ! wanton modesty ! 

Showing life's triumph in the map of death, 

And death's dim look in life's mortality ; 

Each in her sleep themselves so beautify 404 

As if between them twain there were no strife, 
But that life lived in death and death in life. 

Her breasts, like ivory globes circled with blue, 
A pair of maiden worlds unconquered. 
Save of their lord no bearing yoke they knew. 
And him by oath they truly honoured. 410 

These worlds in Tarquin new ambition bred ; 
Who, like a foul usurper, went about 
From this fair throne to heave the owner out. 

What could he see but mightily he noted ? 
What did he note but strongly he desired ? 415 
What he beheld, on that he firmly doted, 
And in his will his wilful eye he tired. 
With more than admiration he admired 
Her azure veins, her alabaster skin, 419 

Her coral lips, her snow-white dimpled chin. 

As the grim lion fawneth o'er his prey. 
Sharp hunger by the conquest satisfied. 
So o'er this sleeping soul doth Tarquin stay, 
His rage of lust by gazing qualified ; 424 

Slack'd, not suppress'd ; for standing by her side. 
His eye, which late this mutiny restrains, 
Unto a greater uproar tempts his veins ; 

And they, like straggling slaves for pillage fight- 
ing. 
Obdurate vassals fell exploits effecting, 429 

In bloody death and ravishment delighting, 
Nor children's tears nor mothers' groans respect- 
ing. 
Swell in their pride, the onset still expecting ; 
Anon his beating heart, alarum striking. 
Gives the hot charge, and bids them do their 
liking. 

His drumming heart cheers up his burning eye, 
His eye commends the leading to his hand ; 436 
His hand, as proud of such a dignity. 
Smoking with pride, maroh'd on to make his stand 
On her bare breast, the heart of all her land ; 
Whose ranks of blue veins, as his hand did scale. 
Left their round turrets destitute and pale. 441 

They, mustering to the quiet cabinet 

Where their dear governess and lady lies. 

Do tell her she is dreadfully beset, 444 

And fright her with confusion of their cries; 

She, much amazed, breaks ope her lock'd-up eyes, 



384 



THE RAPE OF LUCRE CE 



[Line 447-560. 



Who, peeping forth this tumult to behold, 
Are by his flaming torch dimm'd and controU'd. 

Imagine her as one in dead of night 449 

From forth dull sleep by dreadful fancy waking, 
That thinks she hath beheld some ghastly sprite, 
Whose grim aspect sets every joint a-shaking ; 
What terror 'tis, but she, in worser taking. 
From sleep disturbed, heedfully doth view 454 
The sight which makes supposed terror true. 

Wrapp'd and confounded in a thousand fears. 
Like to a new-kill'd bird she trembling lies ; 
She dares not look ; yet, winking, there appears 
Quick-shifting antics, ugly in her eyes ; 459 

Such shadows are the weak brain's forgeries; 
Who, angry that the eyes fly from their lights, 
In darkness daunts them with more dreadful 
sights. 

His hand, that yet remains upon her breast,— 
Rude ram, to batter such an ivory wall !— 
May feel her heart, poor citizen ! distress'd, 465 
Wounding itself to death, rise up and fall. 
Beating her bulk, that his hand shakes withal. 
This moves in him more rage and lesser pity. 
To make the breach and enter this sweet city. 

First, like a trumpet, doth his tongue begin 470 
To sound a parley to his heartless foe ; 
Who o'er the white sheet peers her whiter chin. 
The reason of this rash alarm to know. 
Which he by dumb demeanour seeks to show ; 
But she with vehement prayers urgeth still 
Under what colour he commits this ill. 476 

Thus he replies : ' The colour in thy face, 
That even for anger makes the lily pale 
And the red rose blush at her own disgrace. 
Shall plead for me and tell my loving tale ; 480 
Under that colour am I come to scale 
Thy never-conquer'd fort ; the fault is thine. 
For those thine eyes betray thee unto mine. 

' Thus I forestall thee, if thou mean to chide : 
Thy beauty hath ensnared thee to this night, 485 
Where thou with patience must my will abide ; 
My will that marks thee for my earth's delight, 
Which I to conquer sought with all my might ; 
But as reproof and reason beat it dead. 
By thy bright beauty was it newly bred. 490 

' I see what crosses my attempt will bring ; 

I know what thorns the growing rose defends ; 

I think the honey guarded with a sting ; 

All this beforehand counsel comprehends ; 494 

But will is deaf and hears no heedful friends ; 
Only he hath an eye to gaze on beauty, 
And dotes on what he looks, 'gainst law or duty. 

' I have debated, even in my soul. 

What wrong, what shame, what sorrow I shall 

breed ; 
But nothing can affection's course control, 500 
Or stop the headlong fury of his speed. 
I know repentant tears ensue the deed. 

Reproach, disdain, and deadly enmity ; 

Yet strive I xo embrace mine infamy.' 



This said, he shakes aloft his Roman blade, 505 
Which, like a falcon towering in the skies, 
Coucheth the fowl below with his wings' shade, 
Whose crooked beak threats if he mount he dies , 
So under his insulting falchion lies 509 

Harmless Lucretia, marking what he tells 
With trembling fear, as fowl hear falcon's bells. 

' Lucrece,' quoth he, ' this night I must enjoy thee ; 
If thou deny, then force must work my way. 
For in thy bed I purpose to destroy thee ; 
That done, some worthless slave of thine I'll slay, 
To kill thine honour with thy life's decay ; 516 
And in thy dead arms do I mean to place him. 
Swearing I slew him, seeing thee embrace him. 

' So thy surviving husband shall remain 
The scornful mark of every open eye ; 520 

Thy kinsmen hang their heads at this disdain, 
Thy issue blurr'd with nameless bastardy ; 
And thou, the author of their obloquy, 
Shalt have thy trespass cited up in rhymes 
And sung by children in succeeding times. 

'But if thou yield, I rest thy secret friend; 526 

The fault unknown is as a thought unacted ; 

A little harm done to a great good end 

For lawful policy remains enacted. 

The poisonous simple sometime is compacted 

In a pure compound ; being so applied, 531 

His venom in eflect is purified. 

' Then, for thy husband and thy children's sake. 
Tender my suit ; bequeath not to their lot 
The shame that from them no device can take, 
The blemish that will never be forgot ; 536 

Worse than a slavish wipe or birth-hour's blot ; 
For marks descried in men's nativity 
Are nature's faults, not their own infamy.' 

Here with a cockatrice' dead-killing eye 540 

He rouseth up himself, and makes a pause ; 
While she, the picture of true piety. 
Like a white hind under the gripe's sharp claws, 
Pleads, in a wilderness where are no laws. 
To the rough beast that knows no gentle right, 
Nor aught obeys but his foul appetite. 546 

But when a black-faced cloud the world doth 

threat. 
In his dim mist the aspiring mountains hiding. 
From earth's dark womb some gentle gust doth get, 
Which blows these pitchy vapours from their bid- 
ing, 550 
Hindering their present fall by this dividing ; 
So his unhallow'd haste her words delays. 
And moody Pluto winks while Orpheus plays. 

Yet, foul night-waking cat, he doth but dally. 
While in his hold-fast foot the weak mouse pant- 
eth ; 555 

Her sad behaviour feeds his vulture folly, 
A swallowing gulf that even in plenty wanteth ; 
His ear her prayers admits, but his heart granteth 
No penetrable entrance to her plaining ; 
Tears harden lust, though marble wear with 
raining. 560

Her pity-pleading eyes are sadly fixed 
In the remorseless wrinkles of his face ; 
Her modest eloquence with sighs is mixed, 
Which to her oratory adds more grace. 
She puts the period often from his place, 565 

And midst the sentence so her accent hreaks 
That twice she doth begin ere once she speaks. 

She conjures him by high almighty Jove, 

By kraghthood, gentry, and sweet friendship's 

oath, 
By her untimely tears, her husband's love, 570 
By holy human law and common troth, 
By heaven and earth, and all the power of both. 
That to 1 .is borrow'd bed he make retire, 
And stoop to honour, not to foul desire. 

Quoth she, ' Reward not hospitality 575 

With such black payment as thou hast pretended; 

Mud not the fountain that gave drink to thee ; 

Mar not the thing that cannot be amended ; 

End thy Ul aim before thy shoot be ended ; 
He is no woodman that doth bend his bow 
To strike a poor unseasonable doe. 581 

' My husband is thy friend ; for his sake spare me ; 

Thyself art mighty ; for thine own sake leave me ; 

Myself a weakling ; do not then ensnare me; 

Thou look'st not like deceit ; do not deceive me. 

My sighs, like whirlwinds, labour hence to heave 

thee ; 586 

If ever man were moved with woman's moans. 

Be moved with my tears, my sighs, my groans ; 

' All which together, like a troubled ocean. 
Beat at thy rocky and wreck-threatening heart, 
To soften it with their continual motion ; 591 
For stones dissolved to water do convert. 
O, if no harder than a stone thou art. 

Melt at my tears, and be compassionate ! 

Soft pity enters at an iron gate. 595 

' In Tarquin's likeness I did entertain thee ; 
Hast thou put on his shape to do him shame ? 
To all the host of heaven I complain me. 
Thou wrong'st his honour, wound'st his princely 
name. 599 

Thou art not what thou seem'st ; and if the same. 

Thou seem'st not what thou art, a god, a king ; 

For kings, like gods, should govern everything. 

' How will thy shame be seeded in thine age. 
When thus thy vices bud before thy spring ! 
If in thy hope thou darest do such outrage, 605 
What darest thou not when once thou art a king? 
O, be remember'd, no outrageous thing 

From vassal actors can be wiped away ; 

Then kings' misdeeds cannot be hid in clay. 

'This deed will make thee only loved for fear; 

But happy monarchs still are fear'd for love ; 

With foul offenders thou perforce must bear, 612 

When they in thee the like oifences prove ; 

If but for fear of this, thy will remove ; 
For princes are the glass, the school, the book. 
Where subjects' eyes do learn, do read, do look. 

•And wilt thou be the school where Lust shall 
learn? 617 

Must he in thee read lectures of such shame? 
Wilt thou be glass wherein it shall discern 
6 



Authority for sin, warrant for blame, 620 

To privilege dishonour in thy name? 
Thou back'st reproach against long-living laud, 
And makest fair reputation but a bawd. 

' Hast thou command ? by him that gave it thee, 
From a pure heart command thy rebel will ; 625 
Draw not thy sword to guard iniquity, 
For it was lent thee all that brood to kill. 
Thy princely office how canst thou fulfil, 
When, pattern'd by thy fault, foul sin may say 
He learn'd to sin and thou didst teach the way? 

'Think but how vile a spectacle it were, 631 

To view thy present trespass in another. 
Men's faults do .seldom to themselves appear ; 
Their own transgressions partially they smother ; 
This guilt would seem death-worthy in thy bro- 
ther. 
O, how are they wrapp'd in with infamies 
That from their own misdeeds askance their 
eyes! 637 

' To thee, to thee, my heaved-up hands appeal, 
Not to seducing lust, thy rash relier ; 
I sue for exiled majesty's repeal ; 640 

Let him return, and flattering thoughts retire ; 
His true respect will prison false desire. 
And wipe the dim mist from thy doting eyne. 
That thou shalt see thy state and pity mine.' 

'Have done,' quoth he; 'my uncontrolled tide 
Turns not, but swells the higher by this let. 646 
Small lights are soon blown out, huge fires abide, 
And with the wind in greater fury fret ; 
The petty streams that pay a daily debt 

To their salt sovereign, with their fresh falls' 
haste 650 

Add to his flow, but alter not his taste.' 

' Thou art,' quoth she, ' a sea, a sovereign king 
And, lo, there falls into thy boundless flood 
Black lust, dishonour, shame, misgoverning, 
Who seek to stain the ocean of thy blood. 655 
If all these petty ills shall change thy good. 
Thy sea within a puddle's womb is hearsed. 
And not the puddle in thy sea dispersed. 

' So shall these slaves be king, and thou their slave ; 

Thou nobly base, they basely dignified ; 660 

Thou their fair life, and they thy fouler grave ; 

Thou loathed in their shame, they in thy pride ; 

The lesser thing should not the greater hide ; 
The cedar stoops not to the base shrub's foot. 
But low shrubs wither at the cedar's root. 665 

' So let thy thoughts, low vassals to thy state' — 
' No more,' quoth he ; ' by heaven, I will not hear 

thee; 
Yield to my love ; if not, enforced hate, 
Instead of love's coy touch, shall rudely tear thee; 
That done, despitefully I mean to bear thee 670 
Unto the base bed of some rascal groom, 
To be thy partner in this shameful doom.' 

This said, he sets his foot upon the light, 
For light and lust are deadly enemies; 
Shame folded up in blind concealing night, 675 
When most unseen, then most doth tyrannize. 
The wolf hath seized his prey, the poor lamb cries; 

Till with her own white fleece her voice con- 
troll'd 

Entombs her outcry in her lips' sweet fold ;

[Line 680-798. 



For with the nightly linen that she wears 680 
He pens her piteous clamours in her head, 
Cooling his hot face in the chastest tears 
That ever modest eyes with sorrow shed. 
O, that prone lust should stain so pure a bed ! 
The spots whereof could weeping purify, 685 
Her tears should drop on them perpetually. 

But she hath lost a dearer thing than life. 

And he hath won what he would lose again ; 

This forced league doth force a further strife ; 

This momentary joy breeds months of pain ; 

This hot desire converts to cold disdain ; 690 

Pure Chastity is rifled of her store, 
And Lust, the thief, far poorer than before. 

Look, as the full-fed hound or gorged hawk 
Unapt for tender smell or speedy flight, 695 

Make slow pursuit, or altogether balk 
The prey wherein by nature they delight. 
So surfeit-taking Tarquin fares this night : 
His taste delicious, in digestion souring, 699 
Devours his will, that lived by foul devouring. 

O, deeper sin than bottomless conceit 

Can comprehend in still imagination ! 

Drunken Desire must vomit his receipt. 

Ere he can see his own abomination. 

While Lust is in his pride, no exclamation 705 
Can curb his heat or rein his rash desire, 
TiH, like a jade. Self-will himself doth tire. 

And then with lank and lean discolour'd cheek. 
With heavy eye, knit brow, and strengthless pace. 
Feeble Desire, all recreant, poor, and meek, 710 
Like to a bankrupt beggar wails his case : 
The flesh being proud. Desire doth fight with 
Grace, 
For there it revels, and when that decays 
The guilty rebel for remission prays. 

So fares it with this faultful lord of Eome, 715 
Who this accomplishment so hotly chased ; 
For now against himself he sounds this doojn. 
That through the length of times he stands dis- 



Besides, his soul's fair temple is defaced, 719 

To whose weak ruins muster tuoops of cares. 
To ask the spotted princess how she fares. 

She says, her subjects with foul insurrection 
Have batter'd down her consecrated wall. 
And by their mortal fault brought in subjection 
Her immortality, and made her thrall 725 

To living death and pain perpetual; 
Which in her prescience she controlled still. 
But her foresight could not forestall their will. 

Even in this thought through the dark night he 

stealeth, 
A captive victor that hath lost in gain ; 730 

Bearing away the wound that nothing healeth, 
The scar that will, despite of cure, remain ; 
Leaving his spoil perplex'd in greater pain. 
She bears the load of lust he left behind. 
And he the burthen of a guilty mind. 735 

He like a thievish dog creeps sadly thence ; 
She like a wearied lamb lies panting there ; 
He scowls, and hates himself for his offence ; 
She, desperate, with her nails her flesh doth tear; 
He faintly flies, sweating with guilty fear ; 740 



She stays, exclaiming on the direful night ; 
He runs, and chides his vanish'd, loathed de- 
light. 

He thence departs a heavy convertite ; 
She there remains a hopeless cast-away ; 
He in his speed looks for the morning light; 74.') 
She prays she never may behold the day, 
' For day,' quoth she, ' night's 'scapes doth open 
lay. 
And my true eyes have never practiced how 
To cloak offences with a cunning brow. 

' They think not but that every eye can see 750 
The same disgrace which they themselves behold ; 
And therefore would they still in darkness be, 
To have their unseen sin remain untold ; 
For they their guilt with weeping will unfold, 
And grave, like water that doth eat in steel, 
Upon my cheeks what helpless shame I feel.' 

Here she exclaims against repose and rest, 757 
And bids her eyes hereafter still be blind. 
She wakes her heart by beating on her breast. 
And bids it leap from thence, where it may find 
Some purer chest to close so pure a mind. 761 

Frantic with grief thus breathes she forth her 
spite 

Against the unseen secrecy of night : 

' O comfort-killing Night, image of heU ! 

Dim register and notary of shame ! 765 

Black stage for tragedies and murders fell ! 

Vast sin-concealing chaos ! nurse of blame ! 

BUnd, muffled bawd ! dark harbour for defame ! 
Grim cave of death ! whispering conspirator 
With close-tongued treason and the ravisher ! 

' O hateful, vaporous, and foggy Night ! 771 

Since thou art guilty of my cureless crime. 
Muster thy mists to meet the eastern light, 
Make war against proportion'd course of time ; 
Or if thou wilt permit the sun to climb 775 

His wonted height, yet ere he go to bed. 
Knit poisonous clouds about his golden head. 

'With rotten damps ravish the morning air; 
Let their exhaled unwholesome breaths make sick 
The life of purity, the supreme fair, 780 

Ere he arrive his weary noon-tide prick ; 
And let thy misty vapours march so thick 
That in their smoky ranks his smother'd light 
May set at noon and make perpetual night ! 

' Were Tarquin Night, as he is but Night's child, 
The silver-shining queen he would distain ; 786 
Her twinkling handmaids too, by him defiled. 
Through Night's black bosom should not peep 

again ; 
So should I have co-partners in my pain ; 789 
And fellowship in woe doth woe assuage. 
As palmers' chat makes short their pilgrimage. 

' Where now T have no one to blush with me. 
To cross their arms and hang their heads with 

mine. 
To mask their brows and hide their infamy ; 
But I alone alone must sit and pine, 795 

Seasoning the earth with showers of silver brine. 
Mingling my talk with tears, my grief with 

groans, 
Poor wasting monuments of lasting moans.

*0 Night, thou furnace of foul-reeking smoke, 
Let not the jealous Day behold that face 800 

Which underneath thy black all-hiding cloak 
Immodestly lies martyr'd with disgrace ! 
Keep still possession of thy gloomy place, 
That all the faults which in thy reign are made 
May likewise be sepulchred in thy shade ! 805 

' Make me not object to the teU-tale Day ! 

The light wiU show, character'd in my brow, 

The story of sweet chastity's decay, 

The impious breach of holy wedlock vow ; 

Yea, the illiterate, that know not how 810 

To cipher what is writ in learned books, 
"Will quote my loathsome trespass in my looks. 

' The nurse, to still her child, will tell my story. 
And fright her crying babe with Tarquin's name ; 
The orator, to deck his oratory, 815 

Will couple my reproach to Tarquin's shame ; 
Feast-finding minstrels, tuning my defame. 
Will tie the hearers to attend each line, 
How Tarquin wronged me, I Collatine. 

' Let my good name, that senseless reputation. 
For Collatine's dear love be kept unspotted; 821 
If that be made a theme for disputation, 
The branches of another root are rotted. 
And undeserved reproach to him allotted 
That is as clear from this attaint of mine 
As I, ere this, was pure to Collatine. 826 

' O unseen shame ! invisible disgrace ! 
O unfelt sore ! crest-wounding, private scar ! 
Beproach is stamp'd in CoUatinus' face. 
And Tarquin's eye may read the mot afar, 830 
How he in peace is wounded, not in war. 
Alas, how many bear such shameful blows. 
Which not themselves, but he that gives them 
knows ! 

' If, Collatine, thine honour lay in me. 
From me by strong assault it is bereft. 835 

My honey lost, and I, a drone-like bee. 
Have no perfection of my summer left. 
But robb'd and ransack'd by injurious theft ; 
In thy weak hive a wandering wasp hath crept. 
And suck'd the honey which thy chaste bee 
kept. 840 

' Yet am I guilty of thy honour's wrack ; 

Yet for thy honour did I entertain him ; 

Coming from thee, I could not put him back. 

For it had been dishonour to disdain him ; 

Besides, of weariness he did complain him, 845 
And talk'd of virtue : O unlook'd-for evil. 
When virtue is profaned in such a devil ! 

* Why should the worm intrude the maiden bud? 

Or hateful cuckoos hatch in sparrows' nests ? 

Or toads infect fair founts with venom mud? 

Or tyrant folly lurk in gentle breasts ? 851 

Or kings be breakers of their own behests ? 
But no perfection is so absolute 
That some impurity doth not pollute. 

' The aged man that coffers up his gold 855 

Is plagued with cramps and gouts and painful fits, 
And scarce hath eyes his treasure to behold, 



But like still-pining Tantalus he sita 
And useless barns the harvest of his wits. 
Having no other pleasure of his gain 860 

But torment that it cannot cure his pain. 

' So then he hath it when he cannot use it, 
And leaves it to be master'd by his young; 
Who in their pride do presently abuse it ; 
Their father was too weak, and they too strong, 
To hold their cursed-blessed fortune long. 86<; 
The sweets we wish for turn to loathed sours 
Even in the moment that we call them ours. 

' Unruly blasts wait on the tender spring ; 
Unwholesome weeds take root with precious flow- 
ers ; 870 
The adder hisses where the sweet birds sing ; 
What virtue breeds iniquity devours ; 
We have no good that we can say is ours 

But ill-annexed Opportunity 

Or kills his life or else his quality. 875 

' O Opportunity, thy guilt is great ! 

'Tis thou that exeeutest the traitor's treason ; 

Thou set'st the wolf where he the lamb may get ; 

Whoever plots the sin, thou point'st the season ; 

'Tis thou that spurn'st at right, at law, at reason ; 
And in thy shady cell, where none may spy him, 
Sits Sin, to seize the souls that wander by him. 

' Thou makest the vestal violate her oath ; 883 
Thou blow'st the fire when temperance is thaw'd ; 
Thou smother'st honesty, thou murder'st troth ; 
Thou foul abettor ! thou notorious bawd ! 886 
Thou plantest scandal and displacest laud ; 
Thou ravisher, thou traitor, thou false thief, 
Thy honey turns to gall, thy joy to grief! 

' Thy secret pleasure turns to open shame, 890 
Thy private feasting to a public fast. 
Thy smoothing titles to a ragged name. 
Thy sugar'd tongue to bitter wormwood taste ; 
Thy violent vanities can never last. 
How comes it then, vile Opportunity, 895 

Being so bad, such numbers seek for the«? 

' When wilt thou be the humble suppliant's friend, 
And bring him where his suit may be obtained ? 
When wilt thou sort an hour great strifes to end ? 
Or free that soul which wretchedness hath 
chained? 900 

Give physic to the sick, ease to the pained ? 
The poor, lame, blind, halt, creep, cry out for 

thee; 
But they ne'er meet with Opportunity. 

' The patient dies while the physician sleeps ; 

The orphan pines while the oppressor feeds ; 

Justice is feasting while the widow weeps ; 906 

Advice is sporting while infection breeds ; 

Thou grant'st no time for charitable deeds ; 
Wrath, envy, treason, rape, and murder's rages, 
Thy heinous hours wait on them as their pages. 

' When Truth and Virtue have to do with thee, 
A thousand crosses keep them from thy aid ; 912 
They buy thy help, but Sin ne'er gives a fee ; 
He gratis comes, and thou art well appaid 
As well to hear as grant what he hath said.

My Collatine would else have come to me 916 
When Tarquin did, but he was stay'd by thee. 

' Guilty thou art of murder and of theft, 

Guilty of perjury and subornation, 

Guilty of treason, forgery, and shift, 920 

Guilty of incest, that abomination ; 

An accessory by thine inclination 
To all sins past and all that are to come, 
Irom the creation to the general doom. 

Mis-shapen Time, copesmate of ugly Night, 
Swift subtle post, carrier of grisly care, 926

Be guilty of my death, since of my crime. 

' Why hath thy servant Opportunity 
Betray'd the hours thou gavest me to repose, 
Cancell'd my fortunes, and enchained me 
To endless date of never-ending woes? 935 

Time's office is to fine the hate of foes, 
To eat up errors by opinion bred. 
Not spend the dowry of a lawful bed. 

rime's glory is to calm contending kings. 
To unmask falsehood and bring truth to light, 
To stamp the seal of time in aged things, 941 
To wake the morn and sentinel the night. 
To wrong the wronger tUl he render right. 
To ruinate proud buildings with thy hours. 
And smear with dust their glittering golden 
towers ; 945 

To fill with worm-holes stately monuments. 
To feed oblivion with decay of things. 
To blot old books and alter their contents, 
To pluck the quills from ancient ravens' wings, 
To dry the old oak's sap and cherish springs. 
To spoil antiquities of hammer'd steel, 951 

And turn the giddy round of Fortune's wheel ; 

' To show the beldam daughters of her daughter, 
To make the child a man, the man a child. 
To slay the tiger that doth live by slaughter, 
To tame the unicorn and lion wild, 956 

To mock the subtle in themselves beguiled, 
To cheer the ploughman with increaseful crops, 
And waste huge stones with little water-drops. 

'Why work'st thou mischief in thy pilgrimage. 
Unless thou couldst return to make amends ? 
One poor retiring minute in an age 962 

Would purchase thee a thousand thousand friends. 
Lending him wit that to bad debtors lends ; 

O, this dread night, wouldst thou one hour come 
back, 965 

I could prevent this storm and shun thy wrack ! 

* Thou ceaseless lackey to eternity, 

With some mischance cross Tarquin in his flight ; 

Devise extremes beyond extremity, 989 

To make him curse this cursed crimeful night ; 

Let ghastly shadows his lewd eyes afl'right. 
And the dire thought of his committed evil 
Shape every bush a hideous shapeless devil. 



' Disturb his hours of rest with restless trances, 
Afflict him in his bed with bedrid groans ; 975 
Let there bechance him pitiful mischances, 
To make him moan ; but pity not his moans ; 
Stone him with harden'd hearts, harder thau 
stones ; 
And let mild women to him lose their mildness, 
WUder to him than tigers in their wildness. 

' Let him have time to tear his curled hair, 981 
Let him have time against himself to rave, 
Let him have time of time's help to despair, 
Let him have time to live a loathed slave. 
Let him have time a beggar's orts to crave, 985 
And time to see one that by alms doth live 
Disdain to him disdained scraps to give. 

' Let him have time to see his friends his foes. 
And merry fools to mock at him resort ; 989 

Let him have time to mark how slow time goes 
In time of sorrow, and how swift and short 
His time of folly and his time of sport ; 
And ever let his unrecalling crime 
Have time to wail the abusing of his time. 

' O Time, thou tutor both to good and bad, 995 
Teach me to curse him that thou taught'st this ill ' 
At his own shadow let the thief run mad. 
Himself himself seek every hour to kill ! 
Such wretched hands such wretched blood should 
spill ; 
For who so base would such an oflice have 1000 
As slanderous deathsman to so base a slave ? 

' The baser is he, coming from a king, 
To shame his hope with deeds degenerate ; 
The mightier man, the mightier is the thing 
That makes him honour'd or begets him hate; 
For greatest scandal waits on greatest state. 1006 
The moon being clouded presently is miss'd, 
But little stars may hide them when they list. 

'The crow may bathe his coal-black wings in mire, 
And unperceived fly with the filth away ; 1010 
But if the like the snow-white swan desire. 
The stain upon his silver down will stay. 
Poor grooms are sightless night, kings glorious 
day; 
Gnats are unnoted wheresoe'er they fly, 
But eagles gazed upon with every eye. 1015 

' Out, idle words, servants to shallow fools ! 

Unprofitable sounds, weak arbitrators ! 

Busy yourselves in skill-contending schools ; 

Debate where leisure serves with dull debaters ; 

To trembling clients be you mediators ; 1020 

For me, I force not argument a straw. 
Since that my case is past the help of law. 

' In vain I rail at Opportunity, 

At Time, at Tarquin, and uncheerful Night ; 

In vain I cavil with mine infamy, 1025 

In vain I spurn at my confirm'd despite ; 

This helpless smoke of words doth me no right. 
The remedy indeed to do me good 
Is to let forth my foul-defiled blood. 

'Poor hand, why quiver'st thou at this decree? 

Honour thyself to rid me of this shame ; 

For if I die, my honour lives in thee, 1032

But if I live, thou livest in my defame ; 

Since thou couldst not defend thy loyal dame, 
Ani wast afeard to scratch her wicked foe. 
Kill both thysilf and her for yielding so.' 1036 

This said, from her be-tumbled couch she starteth, 
To find some desperate instrument of death ; 
But this no slaughterhouse no tool imparteth 
To make more vent for passage of her breath ; 1040 
Which thronging through her lips, so vanisheth 
As smoke from JEtna that in air consumes. 
Or that which from discharged cannon fumes. 

' In vain,' quoth she, ' I live, and seek in vain 
Some happy mean to end a hapless life. 1045 

I fear'd by Tarquin's falchion to be ^ain, 
Yet for the self-same purpose seek a knife ; 
But when I fear'd I was a loyal wife ; 
So am I now ; O no, that cannot be ; 1049 

Of that true type hath Tarquin rifled me. 

' O, that is gone for which I sought to live, 

And therefore now I need not fear to die. 

To clear this spot by death, at least I give 

A badge of fame to slander's livery, 

A dying life to living infamy ; 1055 

Poor helpless help, the treasure stol'n away, 
To burn the guiltless casket where it lay ! 

' Well, well, dear Collatine, thou shalt not know 

The stained taste of violated troth ; 

I will not wrong thy true affection so, 1060 

To flatter thee with an infringed oath ; 

This bastard graflF shall never come to growth ; 
He shall not boast who did thy stock pollute 
That thou art doting father of his fruit. 1064 

' Nor shall he smile at thee in secret thought. 
Nor laugh with his companions at thy state ; 
But thou shalt know thy interest was not bought 
Basely with gold, but stol'n from forth thy gate. 
For me, I am the mistress of my fate, 1069 

And with my trespass never will dispense. 
Till Ufe to death acquit my forced offence. 

' I will not poison thee with my attaint. 
Nor fold my fault in cleanly-coin'd excuses ; 
My sable ground of sin I will not paint, 1074 
To hide the truth of this false night's abuses ; 
My tongue shall utter all ; mine eyes, like sluices, 
As from a mountain-spring that feeds a dale, 
Shall gush pure streams to purge my impure 
tale.' 

By this, lamenting Philomel had ended 1079 

The well tuned warble of her nightly sorrow, 
And solemn night with slow-sad gait descended 
To ugly hell : when, lo, the blushing morrow 
Lends light to all fair eyes that light will borrow ; 
But cloudy Lucrece shames herself to see. 
And therefore stUl in night would cloister'd be. 

Revealing day through every cranny spies, 1086 
And seems to point her out where she sits weep- 
ing; 
To whom she sobbing speaks : ' O eye of eyes. 
Why pry'st thou through my window? leave thy 

peej.ing ; 
Mock with thy tickling beams eyes that are sleep- 
inz; 1090 



Brand not my forehead with thy piercing light, 
For day hath nought to do what's done by night.' 

Thus cavils she with every '1 ' n si-ip sees ; 

True grief is fond and testy as a child, 1094 

Who wayward once, his mood with nought agrees ; 

Old woes, not infant sorrows, bear them mild ; 

Continuance tames the one ; the other wild, 
Like an unpractised swimmer plunging still 
With too much labour drowns for want of skill 

So she, deep-drenched in a sea of care, 1100 

Holds disputation with each thing she views. 
And to herself all sorrow doth compare ; 
No object but her passion's strength renews. 
And as one shifts, another straight ensues; 1104 

Sometime her grief is dumb and hath no words; 

Sometime 'tis mad and too much talk affords. 

The little birds that tune their morning's joy 
Make her moans mad with their sweet melody ; 
For mirth doth search the bottom of annoy ; 
Sad souls are slain in merry company ; 1110 

Grief best is pleased with grief's society; 
True sorrow then is feelingly sufiiced 
When with like semblance it is sympathized. 

'Tis double death to drown in ken of shore; 1114 
He ten times pines that pines beholding food; 
To see the salve doth make the wound ache more ; 
Great grief grieves most at that would do it good ; 
Deep woes roll forward like a gentle flood, 

Who, being stopp'd, the bounding banks o'er- 
flows; 1119 

Grief dallied with nor law nor limit knows. 

' You mocking birds,' quoth she, ' your tunes en- 
tomb 
Within your hollow-swelling feather'd breasts, 
And in my hearing be you mute and dumb ; 
My restless discord loves no stops nor rests ; 
A woeful hostess brooks not merry guests ; 1125 
Relish your nimble notes to pleasing ears ; 
Distress likes dumps when time is kept with 
tears. 

'Come, Philomel, that sing'st of ravishment, 
Make thy sad grove in my dishevell'd hair ; 
As the dank earth weeps at thy languishment, 
So I at each sad strain will strain a tear, 1131 
And with deep groans the diapason bear ; 
For burden-wise I'll hum on Tarquin still, 
While thou on Tereus descant'st better skUl. 

'And whiles against a thorn thou bear'st thy part, 
To keep thy sharp woes waking, wretched I, 
To imitate thee well, against my heart 1137 

Will fix a sharp knife, to affright mine eye ; 
Who, if it wink, shall thereon fall and die. 
These means, as frets upon an instrument, 
Shall tune our heart-strings to true languish- 
ment. 1141 

'And for, poor bird, thou sing'st not in the day, 
As shaming any eye should thee behold. 
Some dark deep desert, seated from the way, 
That knows not parching heat nor freezing cold. 
Will we find out ; and there we will unfold

To creatures stern sad tunes, to change their 
kinds; 1147 

Since men prove beasts, let beasts bear gentle 
minds.' 

As the poor frighted deer, that stands at gaze, 
Wildly determining which way to fly, 1150 

Or one encompass'd with a winding maze, 
That cannot tread the way out readily ; 
So with herself is she in mutiny, 
To live or die, which of the twain were better. 
When life is shamed and death reproach's 
debtor. 1155 

♦To kill myself,' quoth she, 'alack, what were it, 
But with my body my poor soul's pollution? 
They that lose half with greater patience bear it 
Than they whose whole is swallow'd in confusion. 
That mother tries a merciless conclusion 1160 

Who, having two sweet babes, when death takes 
one. 

Will slay the other and be nurse to none. 

• My body or my soul, which was the dearer, 
When the one pure, the other made divine? 
Whose love of either to myself was nearer, 1165 
When both were kept for heaven and Collatine? 
Ay me ! the bark peel'd from the lofty pine, 

His leaves will wither and his sap decay ; 
So must my soul, her bark being peel'd away. 

• Her house is sack'd, her quiet interrupted, 
Her mansion battered by the enemy ; 1171 
Her sacred temple spotted, spoil'd, corrupted, 
Grossly engirt with daring infamy ; 

Then let it not be call'd impiety. 
If in this blemish'd fort I make some hole 
Through which I may convey this troubled soul. 

' Yet die I will not till my Collatine 1177 

Have heard the cause of my untimely death ; 
That he may vow, in that sad hour of mine. 
Revenge on him that made me stop my breath. 
My stained blood to Tarquin I'll bequeath, 1181 
Wnich by him tainted shall for him be spent, 
And as his due writ in my testament. 

' My honour I'll bequeath unto the knife 

That wounds my body so dishonoured. 1185 

'Tis honour to deprive dishonour'd life ; 

The one will live, the other being dead ; 

So of shame's ashes shall my fame be bred ; 

For in my death I murder shameful scorn ; 

My shame so dead, mine honour is new-born, 

• Dear lord of that dear jewel I have lost, 1191 
What legacy shall I bequeath to thee? 

My resolution, love, shall be thy boast. 
By whose example thou revenged mayst be. 
How Tarquin must be used, read it in me ; 1195 
Myself, thy friend, w'U kill myself, thy foe, 
And, for my sake, serve thou false Tarquin so. 

' This brief abridgement of my will I make : 
My soul and body to the skies and ground ; 
My resolution, husband, do thou take ; 1200 

Mine honour be the knife's that makes my wound ; 
My shame be his that did my fame confound ; 
And all my fame that lives disbursed be 
To those that live and think no shame of me. 



1205 



' Thou, Collatine, shalt oversee this will ; 
How was I overseen that thou shalt see it ! 
My blood shall wash the slander of mine ill; 
My life's foul deed, my life's fair end shall free it. 
Faint not, faint heart, but stoutly say " So be it;" 

Yield to my hand ; my hand shall conquer thee ; 

Thou dead, both die and both shall victors be.' 

This plot of death when sadly she had laid, 1212 
And wiped the brinish pearl from her bright eyes, 
With untuned tongue she hoarsely calls her maid, 
Whose swift obedience to her mistress hies; 
For fleet-wing'd duty with thought's feathers flies. 
Poor Lucrece' cheeks unto her maid seem so 
As winter meads when sun doth melt their snow. 

Her mistress she doth give demure good-morrow. 
With soft slow tongue, true mark of modesty, 
And sorts a sad look to her lady's sorrow, 1221 
For why her face wore sorrow's livery, 
But durst not ask of her audaciously 
Why her two suns were cloud-eclipsed so, 1224 
Nor why her fair cheeks over-wash'd with woe. 

But as the earth doth weep, the sun being set, 
Each flower moisten'd like a melting eye. 
Even so the maid with swelling drops 'gan wet 
Her circled eyne, enforced by sympathy 
Of those fair suns set in her mistress' sky, 1230 
Who in a salt-waved ocean quench their light, 
Which makes the maid weep like the dewy 
night. 

A pretty while these pretty creatures stand. 
Like ivory conduits coral cisterns filling ; 1234 
One justly weeps; the other takes in hand 
No cause, but company, of her drops spilling ; 
Their gentle sex to weep are often willing. 
Grieving themselves to guess at others' smarts, 
And then they drown their eyes or break their 
hearts. 1239 

For men have marble, women waxen, minds, 

And therefore are they form'd as marble will ; 

The weak oppress'd, the impression of strange 
kinds 

Is form'd in them by force, by fraud, or skill; 

Then call them not the authors of their ill, 1244 
No more than wax shall be accounted evil 
Wherein is stamp'd the semblance of a devil. 

Their smoothness, like a goodly champaign plain, 
Lays open all the little worms that creep ; 
In men, as in a rough-grown grove, remain 
Cave-keeping evils that obscurely sleep ; 1250 
Through crystal walls each little mote will peep ; 

Though men can cover crimes with bold stern 
looks. 

Poor women's faces are their own faults' books. 

No man inveigh against the wither'd flower, 
But cliide rough winter that the flower hath kill'd ; 
Not that devour'd, but that which doth devour. 
Is worthy of blame. O, let it not be hild 1257 
Poor women's faults, that they are so fulfiU'd 
With men's abuses ; those proud lords to blame 
Make weak-made women tenants to their shame. 

The precedent whereof in Lucrece view, 1231 
Assail'd by night with circumstances strong 
Of present death, and shame that might ensue

By that her death, to do her husband wrong ; 
Such danger to resistance did belong, 1265 

That dying fear through all her body spread ; 

And who cannot abuse a body dead ? 

By this, mild patience bid fair Lucrece speak 
To the poor counterfeit of her complaining ; 
'My girl,' quoth she, 'on what occasion break 
Those tears from thee, that down thy cheeks are 
raining? 1271 

If thou dost weep for grief of my sustaining, 

Know, gentle wench, it small avails my mood; 

If tears could help, mine own would do me good. 

•But tell me, girl, when went' — and there she 
stay'd 1275 

Till after a deep groan — 'Tarquin from hence?' 
' Madam, ere I was up,' replied the maid, 
' The more to blame my sluggard negligence ; 
Yet with the fault I thus far can dispense ; 
Myself was stirring ere the break of day, 1280 
And ere I rose was Tarquin gone away. 

' But, lady, if your maid may be so bold. 
She would request to know your heaviness.' 
' O, peace !' quoth Lucrece ; ' if it should be told, 
The repetition cannot make it less, 1285 

For more it is than I can well express ; 
And that deep torture may be call'd a hell 
When more is felt than one hath power to tell. 

Gro, get me hither paper, ink, and pen ; 1289 

Yet save that labour, for I have them here. 
What should I say? One of my husband's men 
Bid thou be ready by and by to bear 
A letter to my lord, my love, my dear; 
Bid him with speed prepare to carry it ; 1294 
The cause craves haste and it will soon be writ.' 

Her maid is gone, and she prepares to write, 

First hovering o'er the paper with her quill ; 

Conceit and grief an eager combat fight ; 

What wit sets down is blotted straight with will ; 

This LS too curious-good, this blunt and ill ; 1300 
Much like a press of people at a door, 
Throng her inventions, which shall go before. 

At last she thus begins : ' Thou worthy lord 
Of that unworthy wife that greeteth thee, 
Health to thy person ! next vouchsafe t' afford, — 
If ever, love, thy Lucrece thou wilt see, — 1306 
Some present speed to come and visit me. 

So, I commend me from our house in grief ; 

My woes are tedious, though my words are 
brief.' 

Here folds she up the tenour of her woe, 1310 
Her certain sorrow writ uncertainly. 
By this short schedule Collatine may know 
Her grief, but not her grief's true quality ; 
She dares not thereof make discovery, 1314 

Lest he should hold it her own gross abuse. 
Ere she with blood had stain'd her stain'd ex- 
cuse. 

Besides, the life and feeling of her passion 
She hoards, to spend when he is Dy to hear her, 
When sighs and groans and tears may grace the 
fashion 



Of her disgrace, the better so to clear her 1820 

From that suspicion which the world might bear 

her. 

To shun this blot, she would not blot the letter 

With words, till action might become them 

better. 

To see sad sights moves more than hear them told ; 
For then the eye interprets to the ear 1325 

The heavy motion that it doth behold, 
When every part a part of woe doth bear. 
'Tis but a part of sorrow that we hear ; 
Deep sounds make lesser noise than shallow 

fords, 
And sorrow ebbs, being blown with wind of 
words. 1330 

Her letter now is seal'd and on it writ 
' At Ardea to my lord with more than haste. 
The post attends, and she delivers it. 
Charging the sour-faced groom to hie as fast 
As lagging fowls before the northern blast ; 

Speed more than speed but dull and slow she 
deems ; 1336 

Extremity still urgeth such extremes. 

The homely villain court'sies to her low, 
And blushing on her, with a steadfast eye 
Receives the scroll without or yea or no, 1340 
And forth with bashful innocence doth hie. 
But they whose guilt within their bosoms lie 

Imagine every eye beholds their blame ; 

For Lucrece thought he blush'd to see her 
shame ; 

When, silly groom ! God wot, it was defect 
Of spirit, life and bold audacity. 1346 

Such harmless creatures have a true respect 
To talk in deeds, while others saucily 
Promise more speed but do it leisurely ; 1349 

Even so this pattern of the worn-out age 
Pawn'd honest looks, but laid no words to gage. 

His kindled duty kindled her mistrust, 
That two red fires in both their faces blazed ; 
She thought he blush'd, as knowing Tarquin's lust, 
And blushing with him, wistly on him gazed ; 1355 
Her earnest eye did make him more amazed ; 
The more she saw the blood his cheeks replenish, 
The more she thought he spied in her some 
blemish. 

But long she thinks till he return again. 
And yet the duteous vassal scarce is gone. 
The weary time she cannot entertain, 1361 

For now 'tis stale to sigh, to weep and groan ; 
So woe hath wearied woe, moan tired moan. 
That she her plaints a little while doth stay, 
Pausing for means to mourn some newer way. 

At last she calls to mind where hangs a piece 
Of skilful painting, made for Priam's Troy ; 
Before the which is drawn the power of Greece, 
For Helen's rape the city to destroy, 1369 

Threatening cloud-kissing Ilion with annoy ; 
Which the conceited painter drew bo proud. 
As heaven, it seem'd, to kiss the turrets bow'd

THE RAPE OF LUCRECE 



[Line 1373-1491. 



A thousand lamentable objects there, 
In scorn of nature, art gave lifeless life ; 
Many a dry drop seem'd a weeping tear, 1375 
Shed for the slaughter'd husband by the wife ; 
The red blood reek'd, to show the painter's strife ; 
And dying eyes gleam'd forth their ashy lights, 
Like dying coals burnt out in tedious nights. 

There might you see the labouring pioner 1380 
Begrimed with sweat and smeared all with dust ; 
And from the towers of Troy there would appear 
The very eyes of men through loop-holes thrust. 
Gazing upon the Greeks with little lust ; 1384 
Such sweet observance in this work was had 
That one might see those far-off eyes look sad. 

In great commanders grace and majesty 
You might behold, triumphing in their faces ; 
In youth, quick bearing and dexterity ; 
And here and there the painter interlaces 1390 
Pale cowards, marching on with trembling paces, 
Which heartless peasants did so well resemble 
That one would swear he saw them quake and 
tremble. 

In Ajax and Ulysses, O, what art 

Of physiognomy might one behold ! 1395 

The face of either cipher'd cither's heart ; 

Their face their manners most expressly told ; 

In Ajax' eyes blunt rage and rigour roU'd ; 
But the mild glance that sly Ulysses lent 1399 
Show'd deep regard and smiling government. 

There pleading might you see grave Nestor stand, 
As 'twere encouraging the Greeks to fight, 
Making such sober action with his hand 1403 
That it beguiled attention, charm'd the sight ; 
In speech, it seem'd, his beard all silver white 
Wagg'd up and down, and from his lips did fly 
Thin winding breath which purl'd up to the sky. 

About him were a press of gaping faces. 
Which seem'd to swallow up his sound advice ; 
All jointly listening, but with several graces. 
As if some mermaid did their ears entice, 1411 
Some high, some low, the painter was so nice ; 
The scalps of many, almost hid behind, 
To jump up higher seem'd, to mock the mind. 

Here one man's hand lean'd on another's head. 

His nose being shadow'd by his neighbour's ear ; 

Here one being throng'd bears back, all boU'n 
and red ; 1417 

Another smother'd seems to pelt and swear ; 

And in their rage such signs of rage they bear 
As, but for loss of Nestor's golden words. 
It seem'd they would debate with angry swords. 

For much imaginary work was there ; 1422 

Conceit deceitful, so compact, so kind. 
That f""- Achilles' image stood his spear 
Gripeu in an armed hand ; himself behind 
Was left unseen, save to the eye of mind ; 1426 
A hand, a foot, a face, a leg, a head. 
Stood for the whole to be imagined. 

And from the walls of strong-besieged Troy 
When their brave hope, bold Hector, march'd to 
field, 1430 

Stood many Trojan mothers sharing joy 
To see their youthful sons bright weapons wield ; 
And to their hope they such odd action yield 



That through their light joy seemed to appear, 
Like bright things stain'd, a kind of heavy fear. 

And from the strand of Dardan, where they fought. 
To Simois' reedy banks the red blood ran, 1437 
Whose waves to imitate the battle sought 
With swelling ridges ; and their ranks began 
To break upon the galled shore, and than 1440 
Eetire again, till meeting greater ranks 
They join and shoot their foam at Simois' banks. 

To this well-painted piece is Lucrece come. 
To find a face where all distress is stell'd. 1444 
Many she sees where cares have carved some, 
But none where all distress and dolour dwell'd, 
Till she despairing Hecuba beheld. 
Staring on Priam's wounds with her old eyes, 
Which bleeding under Pyrrhus' proud foot lies. 

In her the painter had anatomized 1450 

Time's ruin, beauty's wreck, and grim care's reign ; 
Her cheeks with chaps and wrinkles were dis- 
guised ; 
Of what she was no semblance did remain ; 
Her blue blood changed to black in every vein. 
Wanting the spring that those shrunk pipes 
have fed, 1455 

Show'd life imprison'd in a body dead. 

On this sad shadow Lucrece spends her eyes, 
And shapes her sorrow to the beldam's woes, 
Who nothing wants to answer her but cries. 
And bitter words to ban her cruel foes ; 1460 

The painter was no god to lend her those ; 
And therefore Lucrece swears he did her wrong, 
To give her so much grief and not a tongue. 

'Poor instrument,' quoth she, 'without a sound, 
I'll tune thy woes with my lamenting tongue. 
And drop sweet balm in Priam's painted wound. 
And rail on Pyrrhus that hath done him wrong. 
And with my tears quench Troy that burns so 
long, 
And with my knife scratch out the angry eyes 
Of all the Greeks that are thine enemies. 1470 

' Show me the strumpet that began this stir, 
That with my nails her beauty I may tear. 
Thy heat of lust, fond Paris, did incur 
This load of wrath that burning Troy doth bear ; 
Thy eye kindled the fire that burnetii here ; 1475 
And here in Troy, for trespass of thine eye, 
The sire, the son, the dame, and daughter die. 

' Why should the private pleasure of some one 
Become the public plague of many moe ? 
Let sin, alone committed, light alone 1480 

Upon his head that hath transgressed so ; 
Let guiltless souls be freed from guilty woe ; 
For one's ofience why should so many fall. 
To plague a private sin in general ? 

' Lo, here weeps Hecuba, here Priam dies, 1485 
Here manly Hector faints, here Troilus swounds, 
Here friend by friend in bloody channel lies. 
And friend to friend gives unadvised wounds. 
And one man's lust these many lives confounds ; 
Had doting Priam check'd his son's desire, 
Troy had been bright with fame and not with 
fire.' 149; 



Line 1492-1606.]

Hei e feelingly she weeps Troy's painted woes ; 
For sorrow, like a heavy-hanging bell, 
Once set on ringing, with his own weight goes ; 
Then little strength rings out the doleful knell ; 
So Lucrece, set a-work, sad tales doth tell 1496 

To pencill'd pensiveness and colour'd sorrow ; 

She lends them words, and she their looks doth 
horrow. 

She throws her eyes about the painting round, 
And who she finds forlorn she doth lament. 
At last she sees a wretched image bound, 1501 
That niteous looks to Phrygian shepherds lent ; 
His face, though full of cares, yet show'd content; 
Onward to Troy with the blunt swains he goes. 
So mild that Patience seem'd to scorn his woes. 

In him the painter labour'd with his skill 1506 
To hide deceit and give the harmless show 
An humble gait, calm looks, eyes wailing still, 
A brow unbent, that seem'd to welcome woe ; 
Cheeks neither red nor pale, but mingled so 1510 
That blushing red no guilty instance gave, 
Nor ashy pale the fear that false hearts have. 

But, like a constant and confirmed devil, 
He entertain'd a show so seeming just, 
And therein so ensconced his secret evil, 1515 
That jealousy itself could not mistrust 
False-creeping craft and perjury should thrust 
Into so bright a day such black-faced storms, 
Or blot with hell-born sin such saint-like forms. 

The well-skill'd workman this mild image drew 
For perjured Sinon, whose enchanting story 
The credulous old Priam after slew ; 1522 

Whose words, Uke wildfire, burnt the shining 

glory 
Of rich-built Ilion, that the skies were sorry. 
And little stars shot from their fixed places. 
When their glass fell wherein they view'd their 
faces. 1526 

This picture she advisedly perused. 
And chid the painter for his wondrous skill, 
Saying, some shape in Sinon's was abused; 
So fair a form lodged not a mind so ill ; 1530 

And still on him she gazed, and gazing still 
Such signs of truth in his plain face she spied 
That she concludes the picture was belied. 

'It cannot be,' quoth she, 'that so much guile' — 
She would have said 'can lurk in such a look;' 
But Tarquin's shape came in her mind the while. 
And from her tongue 'can lurk' from 'cannot' 
took ; 1537 

•It cannot be' she in that sense forsook, 
And turn'd it thus, ' It cannot be, I find, 
But such a face should bear a wicked mind ; 

For even as subtle Sinon here is painted, 1541 
So sober-sad, so weary, and so mild. 
As if with grief or travail he had fainted, 
To me came Tarquin armed ; so beguiled 
With outward honesty, but yet defiled 1545 

With inward vice ; as Priam him did cherish, 
So did I Tarquin ; so my Troy did perish. 

Look, look, how listening Priam wets his eyes, 
To see those borrow'd tears that Sinon sheds! 
P} iam, why art thou old and yet not wise? 1550 



For every tear he falls a Trojan bleeds ; 

His eye drops fire, no water thence proceeds ; 

Those round clear pearls of his that move thj 
pity 

Are balls of quenchless fire to burn thy city. 

' Such devils steal effects from lightless hell; 
For Sinon in his fire doth quake with cold, 1556 
And in that cold hot-burning fire doth dwell; 
These contraries such unity do hold. 
Only to flatter fools and make them bold ; 
So Priam's trust false Sinon's tears doth flatter, 
That he finds means to burn his Troy with 
water.' 1561 

Here, all enraged, such passion her assails, 
That patience is quite beaten from her breast. 
She tears the senseless Sinon with her nails. 
Comparing him to that unhappy guest 1565 

Whose deed hath made herself herself detest; 

At last she smilingly with this gives o'er ; 

' Fool, fool !' quoth she, ' his wounds wUl not be 
sore.' 1568 

Thus ebbs and flows the current of her sorrow, 
And time doth weary time with her complaining. 
She looks for night, and then she longs for morrow, 
And both she thinks too long with her remaining; 
Short time seems long in sorrow's sharp sustain- 
ing; 1573 
Though woe be heavy, yet it seldom sleeps. 
And they that watch see time how slow it creeps. 

Which all this time hath overslipp'd her thought, 
That she with painted images hath spent ; 
Being from the feeling of her own grief brought 
By deep surmise of others' detriment. 
Losing her woes in shows of discontent. 1580 
It easeth some, though none it ever cured. 
To think their dolour others have endured. 

But now the mindful messenger come back 
Brings home his lord and other company ; 
Who finds his Lucrece clad in mourning black ; 
And round about her tear-distained eye 1586 
Blue circles stream'd, Uke rainbows in the sky ; 
These water-galls in her dim element 
Foretell new storms to those already spent. 

Which when her sad-beholding husband saw, 
Amazedly in her sad face he stares ; 1591 

Her eyes, though sod in tears, look'd red and raw, 
Her lively colour kill'd with deadly cares. 
He hath no power to ask her how she fares ; 
Both stood, like old acquaintance in a trance, 
Met far from home, wondering each other's 
chance, 1596 

At last he takes her by the bloodless hand, 
And thus begins : ' What uncouth ill event 
Hath thee befall'n, that thou dost trembling stand? 
Sweet love, what spite hath thy fair colour spent? 
Why art thou thus attired in discontent ? IGCl 
Unmask, dear dear, this moody heaviness, 
And tell thy grief, that we may give redress.' 

Three times with sighs she gives her sorrow fire, 
Ere once she can discharge one word of woe ; 
At length address'd to answer his desire, 1606

[Line i 607-1 722. 



She modestly prepares to let them know 
Her honour is ta'en prisoner by the foe ; 
While CoUatine and his consorted lords 1609 
With sad attention long to hear her words. 

And now this pale swan in her watery nest 
Begins the sad dirge of her certain ending ; 
' Few words,' quoth she, ' shall fit the trespass best. 
Where no excuse can give the fault amending ; 
In me moe woes than words are now depending; 
And my laments would be drawn out too long, 
To teU them all with one poor tired tongue. 

' Then be this all the task it hath to say : 1618 
Dear husband, in the interest of thy bed 
A stranger came, and on that pillow lay 
Where thou wast wont to rest thy weary head ; 
And what wrong else may be imagined 
By foul enforcement might be done to me, 
From that, alas, thy Lucrece is not free. 1624 

' For in the dreadful dead of dark midnight, 
With shining falchion in my chamber came 
A creeping creature, with a flaming light, 
And softly cried " Awake, thou Roman dame, 
And entertain my love ; else lasting shame 
On thee and thine this night I will inflict, 
If thou my love's desire do contradict. 1631 

' " For some bfvrd-favour'd groom of thine," quoth 

he, 
" Unless thou yoke thy liking to my will, 
I'll murder straight, and then I'll slaughter thee, 
And swear I found you where you did fulfil 
The loathsome act of lust, and so did kill 1636 
The lechers in their deed ; this act will be 
My fame, and thy perpetual infamy." 

' With this, I did begin to start and cry ; 
And then against my heart he set his sword. 
Swearing, unless I took all patiently, 1641 

I should not live to speak another word ; 
So should my shame still rest upon record, 
And never be forgot in mighty Rome 
The adulterate death of Lucrece and her groom. 

' Mine enemy was strong, my poor self weak, 1646 
And far the weaker with so strong a fear ; 
My bloody judge forbade my tongue to speak ; 
No rightful plea might plead for justice there; 
His scarlet lust came evidence to swear 1650 

That my poor beauty had purloin'd his eyes ; 

And when the judge is robb'd, the prisoner dies. 

' O teach me how to make mine own excuse ! 
Or, at the least, this refuge let me find ; 1654 

Though my gross blood be stain'd with this abuse, 
Immaculate and spotless is my mind ; 
That was not forced ; that never was inclined 
To accessary yieldings, but still pure 
Doth in her poison'd closet yet endure.' 

Lo, here the hopeless merchant of this loss, 
With head declined, and voice damm'd up with 
woe, 1661 

With sad-set eyes and wretched arms across, 
From lips new-waxen pale begins to blow 
The grief away that stops his answer so ; 
But, wretched as he is, he strives in vain ; 
What he breathes out his breath drinks up 
again. 1666 



As through an arch the violent roaring tide 
Outruns the eye that doth behold his haste, 
Yet in the eddy boundeth in his pride 1669 

Back to the strait that forced him on so fast. 
In rage sent out, recall'd in rage, being past ; 
Even so his sighs, his sorrows, make a saw, 
To push grief on and back the same grief draw. 

Which speechless woe of his poor she attendeth, 
And his untimely frenzy thus awaketh : 1675 
' Dear lord, thy sorrow to my sorrow Icndeth 
Another power ; no flood by raining slaketh. 
My woe too sensible thy passion maketh 
More feeling-painful ; let it then suffice 1679 
To drown one woe, one pair of weeping eyes. 

'And for my sake, when I might charm thee 80 
For she that was thy Lucrece, now attend me ; 
Be suddenly revenged on my foe, 
Thine, mine, his own; suppose thou dost defend 

me 
From what is past; the help that thou shalt lend 
me 1685 

Comes all too late, yet let the traitor die ; 
For sparing justice feeds iniquity. 

'But ere I name him, you fair lords,' quoth she, 
Speaking to those that came with CoUatine, 
' Shall plight your honourable faiths to me, 1690 
With swift pursuit to venge this wrong of mine ; 
For 'tis a meritorious fair design 

To chase injustice with revengeful arms ; 

Knights, by their oaths, should right poor ladies' 
harms.' 

At this request, with noble disposition 1695 

Each present lord began to promise aid, 
As bound in knighthood to her imposition. 
Longing to hear the hateful foe bewray'd. 1698 
But she, that yet her sad task hath not said. 
The protestation stops. ' 0, speak,' quoth she, 
' How may this forced stain be wiped from me? 

' What is the quality of my offence. 
Being constrain'd with dreadful circumstance ? 
May my pure mind with the foul act dispense, 
My low-declined honour to advance? 1706 

May any terms acquit me from this chance ? 

The poison'd fountain clears itself again ; 

And why not I from this compelled stain ?' 

With this, they all at once began to say, 1709 
Her body's stain her mind untainted clears ; 
While with a joyless smile she turns away 
The face, that map which deep impression bears 
Of hard misfortune, carved in it with tears. 
' No, no,' quoth she, ' no dame hereafter living 
By my excuse shall claim excuse's giving.' 1715 

Here with a sigh, as if her heart would break, 
She throws forth Tarquin's name ; ' He, he,' she 

says. 
But more than 'he' her poor tongue could not 

speak ; 
Till after many accents and delays, 1719 

Untimely breatliings, sick and short assays, 
She utters this : ' He, he, fair lords, 'tis he, 
That guides this hand to give this wound to me.'

Even ha 'e she sheathed in her harmless breast 
A harmful knife, that thence her soul unsheathed ; 
That blow did bail it from the deep unrest 1725 
Of that polluted prison where it breathed ; 
Her contrite sighs unto the clouds bequeathed 

Her winged spright, and tbroui^b her wounds 
doth fly 

Life's lasting date from caucuU 1 dustiuy. 

Stone-still, astonish'd with this deadly deed, 
Stood CoUatine and all his lordly crew ; 1731 

Till Lucrece' father, that beholds her bleed. 
Himself on her self-slaughter'd body threw ; 
And from the purple fountain Brutus drew 
The murderous knife, and, as it left the place, 
Her blood, in poor revenge, held it in chase ; 

And bubbling from her breast, it doth divide 
In two slow rivers, that the crimson blood 
Circles her body in on every side, 
"Who, like a late-sack'd island, vastly stood 1740 
Bare and unpeopled in this fearful flood. 
Some of her blood still pure and red remain'd, 
And some look'd black, and that false Tarquin 
stain'd. 

About the mourning and congealed face 
Of that black blood a watery rigol goes, 1745 

Which seems to weep upon the tainted place ; 
And ever since, as pitying Lucrece' woes. 
Corrupted blood some watery token shows ; 
And blood untainted still doth red abide. 
Blushing at that which is so putrified. 1750 

' Daughter, dear daughter,' old Lucretius cries, 
'That life was mine which thou hast here de- 
prived. 
If in the child the father's image lies. 
Where shall I live now Lucrece is unlived ? 
Thou wast not to this end from me derived. 
If children pre-decease progenitors, 1756 

We are their oflTspring, and they none of ours. 

Poor broken glass, I often did behold 
In thy sweet semblance my old age new born ; 
But now that fair fresh mirror, dim and old, 1760 
Shows me a bare-boned death by time outworn ; 
O, from thy cheeks my image thou hast torn, 
And shiver'd all the beauty of my glass. 
That I no more can see what once I was. 

'O time, cease thou thy course and last no longer, 
if they surcease to be that should survive. 1766 
Shall rotten death make conquest of the stronger. 
And leave the faltering, feeble souls alive ? 
The old bees die, the young possess their hive ; 
Then live, sweet Lucrece, live again, and see 
Thy father die, and not thy father thee !' 1771 

By this, starts Collatine as from a dream. 
And bids Lucretius give his sorrow place ; 
And then in key-cold Lucrece' bleeding stream 
He falls, and bathes the pale fear in his face. 
And counterfeits to die with her a space ; 1776 
Till manly shame bids him possess his breath. 
And live to be revenged on her death. 

yhe deep vexation of his inward soul 1779 

Hath served a dumb arrest upon his tongue • 
Who, mad that sorrow should his use control 



Or keep him from heart-easing words so long, 
Begins to talk ; but through his lips do throng 

Weak words, so thick come in his poor heart's 
aid 1784 

That no man could distinguish what he said. 

Yet sometime 'Tarquin' was pronounced plain, 
But through his teeth, as if the name he tore. 
This windy tempest, till it blow up rain. 
Held back his sorrow's tide, to make it more ; 
At last it rains, and busy winds give o'er ; 1790 
Then son and father weep with equal strife 
Who should weep most, for daughter or for wife. 

The one doth call her his, the other his, 
Yet neither may possess the claim they lay. 
The father says ' She's mine.' ' O, mine she is,' 
Replies her husband ; ' do not take away 1796 
My sorrow's interest ; let no mourner say 
He weeps for her, for she was only mine. 
And only must be wail'd by Collatine.' 

' O,' quoth Lucretius, ' I did give that life 1800 
Which she too early and too late hath spill'd.' 
' Woe, woe,' quoth Collatine, ' she was my wife ; 
I owed her, and 'tis mine that she hath kill'd.' 
'My daughter' and 'my wife' with clamours fiU'd 
The dispersed air, who, holding Lucrece' life, 
Answer'd their cries, ' my daughter ' and ' my 
wife.' 1806 

Brutus, who pluck'd the knife from Lucrece' side. 
Seeing such emulation in their woe. 
Began to clothe his wit in state and pride, 
Burying in Lucrece' wound his folly's show. 
He with the Romans was esteemed so 1811 

As silly-jeering idiots are with kings, 
For sportive words and uttering foolish things ; 

But now he throws that shallow habit by 
Wherein deep policy did him disguise, 1813 

And arm'd his long-hid wits advisedly 
To check the tears in Collatinus' eyes. 
' Thou wronged lord of Rome,' quoth he, ' arise ; 
Let my unsounded self, supposed a fool, 
Now set thy long-experienced wit to school. 

'Why, Collatine, is woe the cure for woe? 1821 
Do wounds help wounds, or grief help grievous 

deeds ? 
Is it revenge to give thyself a blow 
For his foul act by whom thy fair wife bleeds? 
Such childish humour from weak minds proceeds , 
Thy wretched wife mistook the matter so. 
To slay herself that should have slain her foe. 

' Courageous Roman, do not steep thy heart 
In such relenting dew of lamentations, 1829 

But kneel with me and help to bear thy part 
To rouse our Roman gods with invocations 
That they will suffer these abominations. 
Since Rome herself in them doth stand dis- 
graced. 
By our strong arms from forth her fair streets 
chased. 

' Now, by the Capitol that we adore, 1836 

And by this chaste blood so unjustly stained. 
By heaven's fair sua that breeds the fat earth'n

By all our country rights in Rome maintained, 

And by chaste Lucrece' soul that late complained

This said, he struck his hand upon his breast. 
And kiss'd the fatal knife, to end his vow. 
And to his protestation urged the rest, 1844 

Who, wondering at him, did his words allow ; 
Then jointly to the ground their knees they bow ; 



And that deep vow, which Brutus made before, 
He doth again repeat, and that they swore. 

When they had sworn to this advised doom, 1849 
They did conclude to bear dead Lucrece thence, 
To show her bleeding body thorough Rome, 
And so to pubhsh Tarquin's foul offence; 
Which being done with speedy diligence, 
The Romans plausibly did give consent 
To Tarquin's everlasting banishment. 185S

From fairest creatures we desire increase. 
That thereby beauty's rose might never die. 
But as the riper should by time decease, 
His tender heir might bear his memory ; 4

Feed'st thy light's flame with self-substantial fuel. 
Making a famine where abundance lies, 
Thyself thy foe, to thy sweet self too cruel. 
Thou that art now the world's fresh ornament' 
And only herald to the gaudy spring, 10

Pity the world, or else this glutton be, 
To eat the world's due, by the grave and thee. 



When forty winters shall besiege thy brow 
And dig deep trenches in thy beauty's field. 
Thy youth's proud livery, so gazed on now, 
Will be a tatter'd weed, of small worth held ; 
Then being ask'd where all thy beauty lies, 5 
Where all the treasure of thy lusty days, 
To say, within thine own deep-sunken eyes, 
Were an all-eating shame and thriftless praise. 
How much more praise deserved thy beauty's use. 
If thou couldst answer ' This fair child of mine 
Shall sum my count and make my old excuse,' 
Proving his beauty by succession thine ! 12

Calls back the lovely April of her prime ; 10 

So thou through windows of thine age shalt see, 
Despite of wrinkles, this thy golden time. 



But if thou live, remember'd not to be, 
Die single, and thine image dies with thee. 



Unthrifty loveliness, why dost thou spend 
Upon thyself thy beauty's legacy? 
Nature's bequest gives nothing, but doth lend, 
And being frank, she lends to those are free. 
Then, beauteous niggard, why dost thou abuse 5 
The bounteous largess given thee to give ? 
Profitless usurer, why dost thou use 
So great a sum of sums, yet canst not live ? 
For having traffic with thyself alone. 
Thou of thyself thy sweet self dost deceive. 10 
Then how, when nature calls thee to be gone. 
What acceptable audit canst thou leave? 
Thy unused beauty must be tomb'd with thee. 
Which, used, lives th' executor to be. 



Those hours that with gentle work did frame 
The lovely gaze where every eye doth dwell. 
Will play the tyrants to the very same 
And that unfair which fairly doth excel ; 
For never-resting time leads summer on 5 

To hideous winter and confounds him there ; 
Sap cheek'd with frost and lusty leaves quite gone, 
Beauty o'ersnow'd and bareness every where; 
Then, were not summer's distillation left, 
A liquid prisoner pent in walls of glass, 10 

Beauty's effect with beauty were bereft. 
Nor it, nor no remembrance what it was ; 
But flowers distill'd, though they with winter 

meet, 
Leese but their show ; their substance still lives 

sweet. 

e 

Then let not winter's ragged hand deface 
In thee thy summer, ere thou be distill'd ; 
Make sweet some vial ; treasure thou some place 
With beauty's treasure, ere it be self-kill'd. 
That use is not foi bidden usury, £ 

Which happies those that pay the willing loan ; 
That's for thyself to breed another thee. 
Or ten times happier, be it ten for one ;

Ten times thyself were happier than thou art, 
If ten of thine ten times reiigured thee ; 10 

Then what could death do, if thou shouldst depart, 
Leaving thee living in posterity ? 
Be not self-will'd, for thou art much too fair 
To be death's conquest and make worms thine 
heir. 



Lo, in the orient when the gracious light 
Lifts up his burning head, each under eye 
Doth homage to his new-appearing sight. 
Serving with looks his sacred majesty ; 
And having climb'd the steep-up heavenly hill, 5 
Resembling strong youth in his middle age, 
Yet mortal looks adore his beauty still, 
Attending on his golden pilgrimage ; 
But when from highmost pitch, with weary car. 
Like feeble age, he reeleth from the day, 10 

The eyes, 'fore duteous, now converted are 
From his low tract, and look another way ; 
So thou, thyself out-going in thy noon, 
Unlook'd on diest, unless thou get a son. 



Music to hear, why hear'st thou music sadly ? 
Sweets with sweets war not, joy delights in joy. 
Why lovest thou that which thou receivest not 

gladly. 
Or else receivest with pleasure thine annoy ? 
If the true concord of well tuned sounds, 5 

By unions married, do offend thine ear. 
They do but sweetly chide thee, who confounds 
In singleness the parts that thou shouldst bear. 
Mark how one string, sweet husband to another, 
Strikes each in each by mutual ordering ; 10 

Resembling sire and child and happy mother. 
Who, all in one, one pleasing note do sing ; 

Whose speechless song, being many, seeming 
one, 

Sings this to thee: 'Thou single wilt prove 
none.' 



Is it for fear to wet a widow's eye 
That thou consumest thyself in single life? 
Ah ! if thou issueless shalt hap to die. 
The world will wail thee, like a makeless wife ; 
The world will be thy widow, and still weep 5 
That thou no form of thee hast left behind, 
When every private widow well may keep 
By children's eyes her husband's shape in mind. 
Look, what an unthrift in the world doth spend 
Shifts but his place, for still the world enjoys it ; 
But beauty's waste hath in the world an end, 11 
And kept unused, the user so destroys it. 
No love toward others in that bosom sits 
That on himself such murderous shame com- 
mits. 

10 

For shame ! deny that thou bear'st love to any, 
Who for thyself art so unprovident. 
Grant, if thou wilt, thou art beloved of many. 
But that thou none lovest is most evident ; 
For thou art so possess'd with murderous hate 5 
That 'gainst thyself thou stick'st not to conspire. 
Seeking that beauteous roof to ruinate 
Which to repair should be thy chief desire. 



O, change thy thought, that 1 may change my 

mind! 
Shall hate be fairer lodged than gentle love? 10 
Be, as thy presence is, gracious and kind. 
Or to thyself at least kind-hearted prove ; 
Make thee another self, for love of me. 
That beauty still may live in thine or thee. 

11 

As fast as thou shalt wane, so fast thou growest 
In one of thine, from that which thou departest; 
And that fresh blood which youngly thou be- 

stowest 
Thou mayst call thine when thou from youth 

convertest. 
Herein lives wisdom, beauty, and increase ; 5 
Without this, folly, age, and cold decay ; 
If all were minded so, the times should cease 
And threescore year would make the world away. 
Let those whom Nature hath not made for store, 
Harsh, featureless, and rude, barrenly perish ; 
Look, whom she best endow'd she gave the more; 
Which bounteous gift thou shouldst in bounty 

cherish ; 12 

She carved thee for her seal, and meant thereby 
Thou shouldst print more, not let that copy die. 

12 

When I do count the clock that tells the time, 
And see the brave day sunk in hideous night ; 
When I behold the violet past prime. 
And sable curls all silver'd o'er with white ; 
When lofty trees I see barren of leaves, tt 

Which erst from heat did canopy the herd. 
And summer's green all girded up in sheaves, 
Borne on the bier with white and bristly beard, 
Then of thy beauty do I question make. 
That thou among the wastes of time must go. 
Since sweets and beauties do themselves forsake 
And die as fast as they see others grow ; 12 

And nothing 'gainst Time's scythe can make 
defence 

Save breed, to brave him when he takes thee 
hence. 

13 
O, that you were yourself ! but, love, you are 
No longer yours than you yourself here live ; 
Against this coming end you should prepare, 
And your sweet semblance to some other give. 
So should that beauty which you hold in lease 
Find no determination ; then you were 6 

Yourself again, after yourself 's decease. 
When your sweet issue your sweet form should 

bear. 
Who lets so fair a house fall to decay. 
Which husbandry in honour might uphold 10 
Against the stormy gusts of winter's day 
And barren rage of death's eternal cold? 

O, none but unthrifts ; dear my love, you know 

You had a father ; let your son say so. 

14 

Not from the stars do I my judgement pluck ; 

And yet methinks I have astronomy, 

But not to tell of good or evil luck, 

Of plagues, of dearths, or seasons' quality ; 

Nor can I fortune to brief minutes tell, 6 

Pointing to each his thunder, rain, and wind, 

Or say with princes if it shall go well. 

By oft predict that I in heaven find ;

SONNETS 



[Son. 14-22, 



Bat froin thine eyes my knowledge I derive, 
And, constant stars, in them I read such art, 
As truth and beauty shall together thrive, 11 
If from thyself to store thou wouldst convert ; 
Or else of thee this I prognosticate : 
Thy end is truth's and beauty's doom and date. 

15 

When I consider every thing that grows 
Holds in perfection but a little moment, 
That this huge stage presenteth nought but shows 
Whereon the stars in secret influence comment; 
When I perceive that men as plants increase, 5 
Cheered and check'd even by the self-same sky, 
Vaunt in their youthful sap, at height decrease. 
And wear their brave state out of memory ; 
Then the conceit of this inconstant stay 
Sets you most rich in youth before my sight 
Where wasteful Time debateth with Decay, 11 
To change your day of youth to sullied night; 
And all in war with Time for love of you, 
As he takes from you, I engraft you new. 

16 

But wherefore do not you a mightier way 

Make war upon this bloody tyrant, Time ? 

And fortify yourself in your decay 

With means more blessed than my barren rhyme ? 

Now stand you on the top of happy hours, 5 

And many maiden gardens, yet unset. 

With virtuous wish would bear your living flowers 

Much liker than your painted counterfeit ; 

So should the lines of life that life repair, 9 

Which this. Time's pencil, or my pupil pen, 

Neither in inward worth nor outward fair, 

Can make you live yourself in eyes of men. 

To give away yourself keeps yourself still ; 

And you must live, drawn by your own sweet 
skill. 

XT 
Who will believe my verse in time to come, 
If it were fill'd with your most high deserts? 
Though yet, heaven knows, it is but as a tomb 
Which hides your life and shows not half your 



If I could write the beauty of your eyes 5 

And in fresh numbers number all your graces, 
The age to come would say ' This poet lies ; 
Such heavenly touches ne'er touch'd earthly faces.' 
So should my papers, yellow'd with their age. 
Be scorn'd, like old men of less truth than tongue, 
And your true rights be termed a poet's rage 
And stretched metre of an antique song ; 12 

But were some child of yours alive that time, 
You should live twice, in it and in my rhyme. 

18 
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? 
^hou art more lovely and more temperate ; 
Kough winds do shake the darling buds of May, 
And summer's lease hath all too short a date ; 
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, 5 
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd ; 
And every fair from fair sometimes declines. 
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd ; 
But thy eternal summer shall not fade. 
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest; 10 
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade, 
When in eternal lines to time thou growest; 



So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see, 
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee. 

19 

Devouring Time, blunt thou the lion's paws. 
And make the earth devour her own sweet brood ; 
Pluck the keen teeth from the fierce tiger's jaws, 
And burn the long-lived phoenix in her blood ; 
Make glad and sorry seasons as thou fleet'st, 5 
And do whate'er thou wilt, swift-footed Time, 
To the wide world and all her fading sweets ; 
But I forbid thee one most heinous crime ; 
O, carve not with thy hours my love's fair brow. 
Nor draw no lines there with thine antique pen • 
Him in thy course untainted do allow 11 

For beauty's pattern to succeeding men. 
Yet do thy worst, old Time; despite thy wrong, 
My love shall in my verse ever live young. 

SO 

A woman's face with Nature's own hand painted 
Hast thou, the master-mistress of my passion ; 
A woman's gentle heart, but not acquainted 
With shifting change, as is false women's fashion ; 
An eye more bright than theirs, less false in roll- 
ing, 5 
Gilding the object whereupon it gazeth ; 
A man in hue, all ' hues' in his controlling. 
Which steals men's eyes and women's souli 

amazeth. 
And for a woman wert thou first created ; 
Till Nature, as she wrought thee, fell a-doting. 
And by addition me of thee defeated, 11 

By adding one thing to my purpose nothing. 
But since she prick'd thee out for women's 

pleasure, 
Mine be thy love, and thy love's use their 
treasure. 

SI 
So is it not with me as with that Muse 
Stirr'd by a painted beauty to his verse. 
Who heaven itself for ornament doth use 
And every fair with his fair doth rehearse, 
Making a eouplement of proud compare, 5 

With sun and moon, with earth and sea's rich 

gems. 
With April's first-born flowers, and all Dhings rare 
That heaven's air in this huge rondure hems. 
O, let me, true in love, but truly write, 
And then believe me, my love is as fair 10 

As any mother's child, though not so bright 
As those gold candles fix'd in heaven's air ; 
Let them say more that like of hearsay well ; 
I will not praise that purpose not to sell. 

SS 

My glass shall not persuade me I am old. 
So long as youth and thou are of one date ; 
But when in thee tune's furrows I behold. 
Then look I death my days should expiate. 
For all that beauty that doth cover thee 5 

Is but the seemly raiment of my heart. 
Which in thy breast doth live, as thine in me; 
How can I then be elder than thou art? 
O, therefore, love, be of thyself so wary 
As I, not for myself, but for thee will ; 10 

Bearing thy heart, which I will keep so chary 
As tender nurse her babe from faring ill.

Presume not on thy hea/t when mine is slain ;

As an unperfect actor on the stage, 

Who with his fear is put bes-des his part, 

Or some fierce thing replete with too much rage, 

Whose strength's abundance weakens his own 

heart ; 
So I, for fear of trust, forgot to say 5 

The perfect ceremony of love's rite, 
And in mine own love's strength seem to decay, 
O'ercharged with burthen of mine own love's 

might. 
O, let my books be then tne eloquence 
And dumb presagers of my speaking breast ; 10 
Who plead for love, and look for recompense. 
More than that tongue that more hath more ex-

0, learn to read what silent love hath writ ; 
To hear with eyes belongs to love's fine wit,

Mine eye hath play'd the painter and hath stell'd 
Thy beauty's form in table of my heart ; 
My body is the frame wherein 'tis held. 
And perspective it is best painter's art. 
For through the painter must you see his skill, 5 
To find where your true image pictured lies ; 
Which in my bosom's shop is hanging still. 
That hath his windows giazed with thine eyes. 
Now see what good turns eyes for eyes have done: 
Mine eyes have drawn thy shape, and thine for 
me 10 

Are windows to my breast, where-through the sun 
Delights to peep, to gaze therein on thee ; 
Yet eyes this cunning want to grace their art. 
They draw but what they see, know not the 
heart.

uet those who are in favour with their stars 
Of public honour and proud titles boast, 
Whilst I, whom fortune of such triumph bars, 
Unlook'd for joy in that I honour most. 
Great princes' favourites their fair leaves spread 
But as the marigold at the sun's eye, 6 

And in themselves their pride lies buried. 
For at a frown they in their glory die. 
The painful warrior famoused for fight, 
After a thousand victories, once foil'd, 10 

Is from the book of honour razed quite. 
And all the rest forgot for which he toil'd ; 
Then happy I, that love and am beloved 
Where I may not remove nor be removed. 

SQ 

Lord of my love, to whom in vassalage 
Thy merit hath my duty strongly knit, 
To thee I send this written ambassage, 
To witness duty, not to show my wit ; 
Duty so great, which wit so poor as mine 5 

May make seem bare, in wanting words to show it. 
But that I hope some gofj-l conceit of thine 
In thy soul's thought, ali nicked, will bestow it ; 
Till whatsoever star that guides my moving. 
Points on me graciously with fair aspect, 10 

And puts apparel on my tatter'd loving. 
To show me worthy of tny sweet respect ; 



Then may I dare to boast how I do love theo; 
Till then not show my head where thou ma fst 
prove me. 

Weary with toil, I haste me to my bed. 
The dear repose for limbs with travel tired ; 
But then begins a journey in my head. 
To work my mind, when body's work's expired ; 
For then my thoughts, from far where I abide. 
Intend a zealous pilgrimage to thee, 6 

And keep my drooping eyelids open wide. 
Looking on darkness which the blind do see ; 
Save that my soul's imaginary sight 
Presents thy shadow to my sightless view, 10 
Which, like a jewel hung in ghastly night, 
Makes black night beauteous and her old face new. 
Lo, thus, by day my limbs, by night my mind, 
For thee and for myself no quiet find. 

as 

How can I then return in happy plight, 
That am debarr'd the benefit of rest? 
When day's oppression is not eased by night. 
But day by night, and night by day, oppress'd ? 
And each, though enemies to cither's reign, 5 
Do in consent shake hands to torture me ; 
The one by toil, the other to complain 
How far I toil, still farther off from thee. 
I tell the day, to please him thou art bright. 
And dost him grace when clouds do blot the 

heaven ; 10 

So flatter I the swart-complexion'd night ; 
When sparkUng stars twire not thou gild'st the 

even. 
But day doth daily draw my sorrows longer. 
And night doth nightly make grief's strength 

seem stronger. 

29 

When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes, 

I all alone beweep my outcast state, 

And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries, 

And look upon myself, and curse my fate. 

Wishing me like to one more rich in hope, 5 

Featured like him, like him with friends possess'd, 

Desiring this man's art, and that man's scope. 

With what I most enjoy contented least ; 

Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising, 

Haply I think on thee, and then my state, 10 

Like to the lark at break of day arising 

From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate ; 

For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth 
brings 

That then I scorn to change my state with kings. 

30 

When to the sessions of sweet silent thought 
I summon up remembrance of things past, 
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought. 
And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste ; 
Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow, 6 

For precious friends hid in death's dateless night, 
And weep afresh love's long-since-cancell'd woe, 
And moan the expense of many a vanish'd sight ; 
Then can I grieve at grievances foregone, 
And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er 1<) 

The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan, 
Which I new pay as if not paid before.

But if the while I think on thee, dear friend. 
All losses are restored and sorrows end.

Thy bosom is endeared with all hearts, 
Which I by lacKing hive supposed dead ; 
And there reigns love, and all love's loving parts, 
And all those friends which I thought buried. 
How many a holy and obsequious tear 5 

Hath dear religious love stol'n from mine eye, 
As interest of the dead, which now appear 
But things removed that hidden in thee lie! 
Thou art the grave where buried love doth live. 
Hung with the trophies of my lovers gone, 10 
Who all their parts of me to thee did give ; 
That due of many now is thine alone ; 
Their images I loved I view in thee, 
And thou, all they, hast all the all of me. 

33 

If thou survive my well-contented day. 

When that chuil Death my bones with dust shall 

cover. 
And shalt by fortune once more re-survey 
These poor rude lines of thy deceased lover, 4 
Compare theiu with the bettering of the time. 
And though they be outstripp'd by every pen, 
Reserve them for my love, not for their rhyme. 
Exceeded by the height of happier men. 
O, then vouchsafe me but this loving thought: 
' Had my friend's Muse grown with this growing 
age, 10 

A dearer birth than this his love had brought. 
To march in ranks of better equipage ; 
But since he died, and poets better prove. 
Theirs for their style I'll read, his for his love.' 

33 

Full many a glorious morning have I seen 
Flatter the mountain-tops with sovereign eye, 
Kissing with golden face the meadows green, 
Gilding pale streams with heavenly alchemy ; 
Anon permit the basest clouds to ride 5 

With ugly rack on his celestial face. 
And from the forlorn world his visage hide. 
Stealing unseen to west with this disgrace ; 
Even so my sun one early morn did shine 9 

With all-triumphant splendour on my brow ; 
But, out, alack ! he was but one hour mine. 
The region cloud hath mask'd him from me now. 

Yet him for this my love no whit disdaineth ; 

Suns of the world may stain when heaven's sun 
staineth. 

34 

Why didst thnri promise such a beauteous day, 
And make me travel forth without my cloak, 
To let base clouds o'ertake me in my way. 
Hiding thy bravery in their rotten smoke? 
'Tis not enough that through the cloud thou break. 
To dry the rain on my storm-beaten face, 6 

For no man well of such a salve can speak 
That heals the wound and cures not the disgrace ; 
Nor can thy shame give physic to my grief; 
Though thou repent, yet I have still the loss; 
The olfender's sorrow lends but weak relief 11 
To him that bears the strong offence's cross. 



Ah, but those tears are pearl which thy love 

sheds. 
And they are rich and ransom all ill deeds. 

35 

No more be grieved at that which thou hast done 
Roses have thorns, and silver fountains mud; 
Clouds and eclipses stain both moon and sun, 
And loathsome canker lives in sweetest bud. 
All men make faults, and even I in this, f 

Authorizing thy trespass with compare, 
Myself corrupting, salving thy amiss. 
Excusing thy sins more than thy sins are ; 
For to thy sensual fault I bring in sense, — 
Thy adverse party is thy advocate, — W 

And 'gainst myself a lawful plea commence ; 
Such civil war is in my love and hate, 

That I an accessary needs must be 

To that sweet thief which sourly robs from me. 

36 

Let me confess that we two must be twain, 
Although our undivided loves are one ; 
So shall those blots that do with me remain, 
Without thy help, by me be borne alone. 
In our two loves there is but one respect, 5 

Though in our lives a separable spite. 
Which though it alter not love's sole effect. 
Yet doth it steal sweet hours from love's deUgbt 
I may uot evermore acknowledge thee, 
Lest my bewailed guilt should do thee shame, 10 
Nor thou with public kindness honour me. 
Unless thou take that honour from thy name, 
But do not so ; I love thee in such sort. 
As thou being mine, mine is thy good report.

As a decrepit father takes delight 
To see his active child do deeds of youth, 
So I, made lame by fortune's dearest spite, 
Take all my comfort of thy worth and truth ; 
For whether beauty, birth, or wealth, or wit, 5 
Or any of these all, or all, or more. 
Entitled in thy parts do crowned sit, 
I make my love engrafted to this store ; 
So then I am not lame, poor, nor despised. 
Whilst that this shadow doth such substance give 
That I in thy abundance am sufficed 11 

And by a part of all thy glory live. 

Look, what is best, that best I wish in thee ; 

This wish I have ; then ten times happy me !

How can my Muse want subject to invent. 
While thou dost breathe, that pour'st into my

Thine own sweet argument, too excellent 
For every vulgar paper to rehearse? 
O, give thyself the thanks, if aught in me 6 

Worthy perusal stand against thy sight ; 
For who's so dumb that cannot write to thee. 
When thou thyself dost give invention light? 
Be thou the tenth Muse, ten times more in worth 
Than those old nine which rhymers invocate ; 10

Were it not thy sour leisure gave sweet leave 10

By praising him here who doth hence remain !

Take all my loves, my love, yea, take them all ;

No love, my love, that thou mayst true love call;

And when a woman woos, what woman's son 
Will sourly leave her till she have prevailed ? 
Ay me ! but yet thou mightst my seat forbear. 
And chide thy beauty and thy straying youth,

Thou dost love her, because thou know'st I love her ; 
And for my sake even so doth she abuse me, 
Suflering my friend for my sake to approve her. 
If I lose thee, my loss is my love's gain. 
And losing her, my friend hath found that loss ; 
Both find each other, and I lose both twain, 11

Sweet flattery ! then she loves but me alone.

By looking on thee in the living day, 10 

When in dead night thy fair imperfect shade 
Through heavy sleep on sightless eyes doth stay! 
All days are nights to see till I see thee. 
And nights bright days when dreams do show 
thee me. 

44 
If the dull substance of my flesh were thought, 
Injurious distance should not stop my way; 
For then, despite of space, I would be brought, 
From limits far remote, where thou dost stay. 
No matter then although my foot did stand 5 
Upon the farthest earth removed from thee ; 
For nimble thought can jump both sea and land. 
As soon as think the place where he would be. 
But, ah, thought kills me, that I am not thought, 
To leap large lengths of miles when thou art gone, 
But that, so much of earth and water wrought, 
I must attend time's leisure with my moan ; 
Receiving nought by elements so slow 13 

But heavy tears, badges of cither's woe. 

45 

The other two, slight air and purging fire, 
Are both with thee, wherever I abide ; 
The first my thought, the other my desire, 
These present-absent with swift motion slide, 
For when these quicker elements are gone 5 

In tender embassy of love to thee, 
My life, being made of four, with two alone 
Sinks down to death, oppress'd with melancholy; 
Until life's composition be recured 9 

By those swift messengers return'd from thee, 
Who even but now come back again assured 
Of thy fair health, recounting it to me ; 
This told, I joy; but then no longer glad, 
I send them back again, and straight grow sad. 

46 

Mine eye and heart are at a mortal war. 
How to divide the conquest of thy sight ; 
Mine eye my heart thy picture's sight would bar, 
My heart mine eye the freedom of that right. 
My heart doth plead that thou in him dost lie, 
A closet never pierced with crystal eyes, 6 

But the defendant doth that plea deny. 
And says in him thy fair appearance lies. 
To 'cide this title is impanneled 
A quest of thoughts, all tenants to the heart ; 
And by their verdict is determined 11 

The clear eye's moiety and the dear heart's part; 
As thus: mine eye's due is thine outward part, 
And my heart's right thine inward love of heart. 

47' 

Betwixt mine eye and heart a league is took, 
And each doth good turns now unto the other ; 
When that mine eye is famish'd for a look, 
Or heart in love with sighs himself doth smother, 
With my love's picture then my eye doth feast, 
And to the painted banquet bids my heart ; 6 
Another time mine eye is my heart's guest, 
And in his thoughts of love doth share a part •

So, either by thy picture or my love, 
Thyself away art present still with me; 10 

For thou not farther than my thoughts canst move, 
And I am still with them and they with thee ; 
Or, if they sleep, thy picture in my sight 
Awakes my heart to heart's and eye's delight. 

48 
How careful was I, when I took ray way. 
Each trifle under truest bars to thrust, 
That to my use it might unused stay 
From hands of falsehood, in sure wards of trust! 
But thou, to whom my jewels trifles are, 5 

Most worthy comfort, now my greatest grief. 
Thou, best of dearest and mine only care, 
Art left the prey of every vulgar thief. 
Thee have I not lock'd up in any chest, 
Save where thou art not, though I feel thou art. 
Within the gentle closure of my breast, 11 

From whence at pleasure thou mayst come and 
part ; 
And even thence thou wilt be stoFn, I fear, 
For truth proves thievish for a prize so dear. 

49 

Against that time, if ever that time come. 
When I shall see thee frown on my defects. 
When as thy love hath cast his utmost sum, 
Call'd to that audit by advised respects ; 4 

Against that time when thou shalt strangely 

pass. 
And scarcely greet me with that sun, thine eye. 
When love, converted from the thing it was. 
Shall reasons find of settled gravity ; 
Against that time do I ensconce me here 
Within the knowledge of mine own desert, 10 
And this my hand against myself uprear. 
To guard the lawful reasons on thy part ; 
To leave poor me thou hast the strength of laws. 
Since wby to love I can allege no cause. 

oO 

How heavy do I journey on the way, 
When what I seek, my weary travel's end. 
Doth teach that ease and that repose to say, 
' Thus far the miles are measured from thy friend !' 
The beast that bears me, tired with my woe, 5 
Plods dully on, to bear that weight in me. 
As if by some instinct the wretch did know 
His rider loved not speed, being made from thee; 
The bloody spur cannot provoke him on 
That sometimes anger thrusts into his hide ; 
Which heavily he answers with a groan, 11 

More sharp to me than spurring to his side ; 
For that same groan doth put this in my mind : 
My grief lies onward, and my joy behind. 

51 

Thas can my love excuse the slow offence 
Of my dull bearer when from thee I speed ; 
From where thou art why should I haste me 

thence ? 
Till I return, of posting is no need. 
O, what excuse will my poor beast then find, 
When swift extremity can seem but slow ? 6 

Then should I spur, though mounted on the wind. 
In winged speed no motion shall I know; 



Then can no horse with my desire keep pace; 
Therefore desire, of pfirfect'st love being made, 
Shall neigh, — no dull flesh, — in his fiery race; U 
But love, for love, thus shall excuse my jade; 
Since from thee going he went wilful-slow. 
Towards thee I'll run and give him leave to go.

So ani I as the rich, whose blessed key 
Can bring him to his sweet up-locked treasare, 
The which he will not every hour survey, 
For blunting the fine point of seldom pleasure. 
Therefore are feasts so solemn and so rare, 5 

Since, seldom coming, in the long year set, 
Like stones of worth they thinly placed are, 
Or captain jewels in the carcanet. 
So is the time that keeps you as my chest. 
Or as the wardrobe which the robe doth hide, 
To make some special instant special blest, 1 1 
By new unfolding his imprison'd pride. 
Blessed are you, whose worthiness gives scope, 
Being had, to triumph, being lack'd, to hope.

What is your substance, whereof are you made. 
That millions of strange shadows on you tend ? 
Since every one hath, every one, one shade. 
And you, but one, can every shadow lend. 
Describe Adonis, and the counterfeit 5 

Is poorly imitated after you ; 
On Helen's cheek all art of beauty set, 
And you in Grecian tires are painted new ; 
Speak of the spring and foison of the year. 
The one doth shadow of your beauty show, 10 
The other as your bounty doth appear ; 
And you in every blessed shape we know. 
In all external grace you have some part, 
But you like none, none you, for constant heart. 

54 

O, how much more doth beauty beauteous seem 
By that sweet ornament which truth doth giye ! 
The rose looks fair, but fairer we it deem 
For that sweet odour which doth in it live. 
The canker-blooms have full as deep a dye 5 

As the perfumed tincture of the roses. 
Hang on such thorns, and play as wantonly 
When summer's breath their masked buds dis- 
closes ; 
But, for their virtue only is their show, 
They live unwoo'd and unrespected fade ; 10 

Die to themselves. Sweet roses do not so ; 
Of their sweet deaths are sweetest odours made ; 
And so of you, beauteous and lovely youth, 
When that shall vade, by verse distills your 
truth. 

55 
Not marble, nor the gilded monuments 
Of princes, shall outlive this powerful rhyme ; 
But you shall shine more bright in these content* 
Than unswept stone, besmear'd with sluttish 

time. 
When wasteful war shall statues overturn, 5 

And broils root out the work of masonry, 
Nor Mars his sword nor war's quick fire shall 

burn 
The Uving record of your memory.

Being your slave, what should I do but tend 
Upon the hours and times of your desire ? 
I have no precious time at all to spend, 
Nor services to do, till you require. 4 

Nor dare I chide the world-without-end hour 
Whilst I, my sovereign, watch the clock for you, 
Nor think the bitterness of absence sour 
When you have bid your servant once adieu ; 
Nor dare I question with my jealous thought 
Where you may be, or your atiairs suppose, 10 
But, like a sad slave, stay and think of nought 
Save, where you are how happy you make those. 
So true a fool is love that in your will. 
Though you do any thing, he thinks no ill.

That god forbid that made me first your slave, 
I should in thought control your times of pleasure. 
Or at your hand the account of hours to crave. 
Being your vassal, bound to stay your ^eisure i 
O, let me suffer, being at your beck, 5 

The imprison'd absence of your liberty ; 
And patience, tame to sufferance, bide each check, 
Without accusing you of injury. 
Be where you list, your charter is so strong 
That you yourself may privilege your time 10 
To what you will ; to you it doth belong 
Yourself to pardon of self-doing crime. 
I am to wait, though waiting so be hell, 
Not blame your pleasure, be it ill or well.

ff there be nothing new, but that which is 
Hath been before, how are our brains beguiled, 
Which, labouring for invention, bear amiss 
The second burthen of a former child ! 
0, that record could with a backward look, 5 
Even of five hundred courses of the sun, 
Show me your image in some antique book, 
Since mind at first in character was done, 



That I might see what the old world could say 
To this composed wonder of your frame ; \.> 

Whether we are mended, or whether better they, 
Or whether revolution be the same. 
O, sure I am, the wits of former days 
To subjects worse have given admiring pralsa 

eo 

Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore 
So do our minutes hasten to their end ; 
Each changing place with that which goes before 
In sequent toil all forwards do contend. 
Nativity, once in the main of light, 5 

Crawls to maturity, wherewith being crown'd, 
Crooked eclipses 'gainst his glory fight. 
And Time that gave doth now his gift confound. 
Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth, 
And delves the parallels in beauty's brow, 10 
Feeds on the rarities of nature's truth. 
And nothing stands but for his scythe to mow ; 
And yet to times in hope my verse shall stand, 
Praising thy worth, despite his cruel hand. 



Is it thy will thy image should keep open 
My heavy eyelids to the weary night ? 
Dost thou desire my slumbers should be broken, 
While shadows like to thee do mock my sight? 
Is it thy spirit that thou send'st from thee 3 

So far from home into my deeds to pry, 
To find out shames and idle hours in me. 
The scope and tenour of thy jealousy ? 
O, no ! thy love, though much, is not so great ; 
It is my love that keeps mine eye awake ; IC 

Mine own true love that doth my rest defeat. 
To play the watchman ever for thy sake ; 

For thee watch I whilst thou dost wake else- 
where, 

From me far off, with others all too near. 



Sin of self-love possesseth all mine eye 
And all my soul and all my every part ; 
And for this sin there is no remedy, 
It is so grounded inward in my heart. 
Methinks no face so gracious is as mine, 5 

No shape so true, no truth of such account ; 
And for myself mine own worth do define, 
As I all other in all worths surmount. 
But when my glass shows me myself indeed. 
Seated and chopp'd with tann'd antiquity, 10 
Mine own self-love quite contrary I read ; 
Self so self-loving were iniquity. 
'Tis thee, myself, that for myself I praise, 
Painting my age with beauty of thy days.

Against my love shall be, as I am now. 

With Time's injurious hand crush'd and o'erworn ; 

When hours have drain'd his blood and fiU'd his 

brow 
With lines and wrinkles ; when his youthful morn 
Hath travell'd on to age's steepy night, 5 

And all those beauties whereof now he's king 
Are vanishing or vanish'd out of sight. 
Stealing away the treasure of his spring ; 
For such a time do I now fortify 
Against confounding age's cruel knife, 10 

That he shall never cut from memory 
My sweet love's beauty, though my lover's lif<j ;

SONNETS 



[Son. 63-71. 



His beauty shall in these bia^w lines be seen, 
Aid they shall live, and he in tnem still green. 



When I have seen by Time's fell hand defaced 
The rich-proud cost of outworn buried age ; 
When sometime lofty towers I see down-razed, 
And brass eternal slave to mortal rage ; 
When I have seen the hungry ocean gain 5 

Advantage on the kingdom of the shore, 
And the firm soil win of the watery main. 
Increasing store with loss and loss with store ; 
W'hen I have seen such interchange of state, 
Or state itself confounded to decay ; 10 

Ruin hath taught me thus to ruminate. 
That Time will come and take my love away. 
This thought is as a death, which cannot choose 
But weep to have that which it fears to lose. 

63 

Since brass, nor stone, nor earth, nor boundless 

sea, 
But sad mortality o'er-sways their power. 
How with this rage shall beauty hold a plea. 
Whose action is no stronger than a flower? 
O, how shall summer's honey breath hold out 5 
Against the wreckful siege of battering days, 
When rocks impregnable are not so stout, 
Nor gates of steel so strong, but Time decays? 
O fearful meditation! where, alack, 9 

Shall Time's best jewel from Time's chest lie hid ? 
Or what strong hand can hold his swift foot back ? 
Or who his spoil of beauty can forbid? 
O, none, unless this miracle have might, 
That in black ink my love may still shine bright. 



Tired with all these, for restful death I cry. 
As, to behold desert a beggar born. 
And needy nothing trimm'd in jollity. 
And purest faith unhappily forsworn. 
And gilded honour shamefully misplaced, 5 

And maiden virtue rudely strumpeted. 
And right perfection wrongfully disgraced, 
And strength by limping sway disabled. 
And art made tongue-tied by authority, 
And folly, doctor-like, controlling skill, 10 

And simple truth miscall'd simplicity. 
And captive good attending captain ill ; 
Tired with all these, from these would I be gone, 
Save that, to die, I leave my love alone. 

Ah, wherefore with infection should he Uve 
And with his presence grace impiety. 
That sin by him advantage should achieve 
And lace itself with his society? 
Why should false painting imitate his cheek, 5 
And steal dead seeing of his living hue? 
Why should poor beauty indirectly seek 
Eoses of shadow, since his rose is true? 
Why should he live, now Nature bankrupt is, 
Beggar'd of blood to blush through lively veins? 
For she hath no exchequer now but his, 11 

And, proud of many, lives upon his gains. 
O, him she stores, to show what wealth she had 
In days long since, before these last so bad. 



68 

Thus is his cheek the map of days outworn, 
When beauty lived and died as flowers do now, 
Before these bastard signs of fair were born, 
Or durst inhabit on a living brow ; 
Before the golden tresses of the dead, 5 

The right of sepulchres, were shorn away. 
To live a second life on second head ; 
Ere beauty's dead fleece made another gay ; 
In him those holy antique hours are seen, 
Without all ornament, itself and true, 10 

Making no summer of another's green. 
Robbing no old to dress his beauty new ; 
And him as for a map doth Nature store. 
To show false Art what beauty was of yore. 



69 

Those parts of thee that the world's eye doth view 
Want nothing that the thought of hearts can 

mend ; 
All tongues, the voice of souls, give thee that due, 
Uttering bare truth, even so as foes commend. 
Thy outward thus with outward praise is crown'd ; 
But those same tongues, that give thee so thine 
own, 6 

In other accents do this praise confound 
By seeing farther than the eye hath shown. 
They look into the beauty of thy mind. 
And that, in guess, they measure by thy deeds ; 
Then, churls, their thoughts, although their eyei 
were kind, 11 

To thy fair flower add the rank smell of weeds ; 
But why thy odour matcheth not thy show. 
The soil is this, that thou dost common grow. 



That thou art blamed shall not be thy defect, 
For slander's mark was ever yet the fair ; 
The ornament of beauty is suspect, 
A crow that flies in heaven's sweetest air. 
So thou be good, slander doth but approve 5 

Thy worth the greater, being woo'd of time ; 
For canker vice the sweetest buds doth love. 
And thou present'st a pure unstained prime. 
Thou hast pass'd by the ambush of young days, 
Either not assail'd, or victor being charged ; 10 
Yet this thy praise cannot be so thy praise. 
To tie up envy evermore enlarged ; 
If some suspect of ill mask'd not thy show, 
Then thou alone kingdoms of hearts shouldst 



No longer mourn for me when I am dead 
Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell 
Give warning to the world that I am fled 
From this vile world, with vilest worms to dwell , 
Nay, if you read this line, remember not 5 

The hand that writ it; for I love you so. 
That I in your sweet thoughts would be forgot. 
If thinking on me then should make you woe. 
O, if, I say, you look upon this verse 9 

When I perhaps compounded am with clay, 
Do not so much as my poor name rehearse. 
But let your love even with my life decay ; 

Lest the wise world should look into your moac. 

And mock you with me after I am gone.

O, lest the world should task you to recite 
What merit lived in me, that you should love 
After my death, dear love, forget me quite, 
For you in me can nothing worthy prove ; 
Unless you would devise some virtuous lie^ 5 

To do more for me than mine own desert, 
And hang more praise upon deceased I 
Than niggard truth would willingly impart ; 
O, lest your true love may seem false in this, 
That you for love speak well of me untrue, 10 
My name be buried where my body is. 
And live no more to shame nor me nor you. 
For I am shamed by that which I bring forth. 
And so should you, to love things nothing worth. 

rs 

That time of year thou mayst in me behold 
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang 
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold. 
Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang. 
In me thou see'st the twilight of such day 5 

As after sunset fadeth in the west ; 
Which by and by black night doth take away, 
Death's second self, that seals up all in rest. 
In me thou see'st the glowing of such fire. 
That on the ashes of his youth doth lie, 10 

As the death-bed whereon it must expire, 
Consumed with that which it was nourish'd by. 

This thou perceivest, which makes thy love 
more strong, 

To love that well which thou must leave ere long. 

But be contented ; when that fell arrest 
Without all bail shall carry me away. 
My life hath in this line some interest, 
Which for memorial still with thee shall stay. 
When thou reviewest this, thou dost review 5 
The very part was consecrate to thee ; 
The earth can have but earth, which is his due; 
My spirit is thine, the better part of me ; 
So then thou hast but lost the dregs of life. 
The prey of worms, my body being dead ; 10 

The coward conquest of a wretch's knife. 
Too base of thee to be remembered. 
The worth of that is that which it contains, 
And that is this, and this with thee remains. 

So are you to my thoughts as food to life. 

Or as sweet-season'd showers are to the ground; 

And for the peace of you I hold such strife 

As 'twixt a miser and his wealth is found ; 

Now proud as an enjoyer, and anon 5 

Doubting the filching age will steal his treasure ; 

Now counting best to be with you alone, 

Then better'd that the world may see my pleasure ; 

Sometime all full with feasting on your sight, 

And by and by clean starved for a look ; 10 

Possessing or pursuing no delight. 

Save what is had or must from you be took. 

Thus do I pine and surfeit day by day, 

Or gluttoning on all, or all away. 

Why is my verse so barren of new pride, 

60 far from variation or quick change ? 

Why with the time do I not glance aside 

To new-found methods and to compounds strange ? 



Why write I still all one, ever the same, 5 

And keep invention in a noted weed. 
That every word doth almost tell my name, 
Showing their birth and where they did proceed ? 
O, know, sweet love, I always write of you. 
And you and love are still my argument ; 10 

So all my best is dressing old words new, 
Spending again what is already spent ; 
For as the sun is daily new and old. 
So is my love still telling what is told. 

Thy glass will show thee how thy beauties wear, 
Thy dial how thy precious minutes waste ; 
The vacant leaves thy mind's imprint will bear. 
And of this book this learning mayst thou taste. 
The wrinkles which thy glass will truly show 5 
Of mouthed graves will give thee memory ; 
Thou by thy dial's shady stealth mayst know 
Time's thievish progress to eternity. 
Look, what thy memory cannot contain 
Commit to these waste blanks, and thou shalt find 
Those children nursed, deUver'd from thy brain, 
To take a new acquaintance of thy mind. 12 

These offices, so oft as thou wilt look, 
Shall profit thee and much enrich thy book. 

rs 

So oft have I invoked thee for my Muse 
And found such fair assistance in my verse 
As every alien pen hath got my use 
And under thee their poesy disperse. 
Thine eyes, that taught the dumb on high to sing 
And heavy ignorance aloft to fly, ft 

Have added feathers to the learned's wing 
And given grace a double majesty. 
Yet be most proud of that which I compile. 
Whose influence is thine and born of thee ; lOi 
In others' works thou dost but mend the style, 
And arts with thy sweet graces graced be ; 
But thou art all my art, and dost advance 
As high as learning my rude ignorance. 

Whilst I alone did call upon thy aid. 
My verse alone had all thy gentle grace ; 
But now my gracious numbers are decay'd. 
And my sick Muse doth give another place. 
I grant, sweet love, thy lovely argument 5 

Deserves the travail of a worthier pen ; 
Yet what of thee thy poet doth invent 
He robs thee of, and pays it thee again. 
He lends thee virtue, and he stole that word 
From thy behaviour; beauty doth he give, 10 
And found it in thy cheek ; he can aJibrd 
No praise to thee but what in thee doth live. 
Then thank him not for that which he doth say, 
Since what he owes thee thou thyself dost pay. 



O, how I faint when I of you do write. 
Knowing a better spirit doth use your name, 
And in the praise thereof spends all his might. 
To make me tongue-tied, speaking of your fame 1 
But since your worth, wide as the ocean is, 9 
The humble as the proudest sail doth bear, 
My saucy bark, inferior far to his. 
On your broad main doth wilfully appear.

Your shallowest help will hold me up afloat, 
Whilst he upon your soundless deep doth ride; 
Or, heiag wreck'd, I am a worthless boat, 11 

He of tall building and of goodly pride; 
Then if he thrive and I be cast away. 
The worst was this; my love was my decay. 

81 
Or I shall live your epitaph to make, 
Or you survive when I in earth am rotten ; 
From hence your memory death cannot take, 
Although in me each part will be forgotten. 4 
Your name from hence immortal life shall have, 
Though I, once gone, to all the world must die; 
The earth can yield me but a common grave. 
When you entombed in men's eyes shall lie. 
Your monument shall be my gentle verse. 
Which eyes not yet created shall o'er-read ; 10 
And tongues to be your being shall rehearse, 
When all the breathers of this world are dead ; 
You still shall live,— such virtue hath my pen,— 
Where breath most breathes, even in the mouths 
of men. 

82 
I grant thou wert not married to my Muse, 
And therefore mayst without attaint o'erlook 
The dedicated words which writers use 
Of their fair subject, blessing every book. 
Thou art as fair in knowledge as in hue, 5 

Finding thy worth a limit past my praise; 
And therefore art enforced to seek anew 
Some fresher stamp of the time-bettering days. 
And do so, love ; yet when they have devised 
What strained touches rhetoric can lend, 10 

Thou truly fair wert truly sympathized 
In true plain words by thy true-telling friend ; 
And their gross painting might be better used 
Where cheeks need blood ; in thee it is abused. 

83 
I never saw that you did painting need, 
And therefore to your fair no painting set; 
I found, or thought I found, you did exceed 
The barren tender of a poet's debt; 
And therefore have I slept in your report, n 

That you yourself, being extant, well might show 
How far a modern quill doth come too short. 
Speaking of worth, what worth in you doth grow. 
This silence for my sin you did impute. 
Which shall be most my glory, being dumb; 10 
For I impair not beauty being mute, 
When others would give life and bring a tomb. 
There lives more life in one of your fair eyes 
Than both your poets can in praise devise. 



Who is it that says most? which can say more 
Than this rich praise, that you alone are you ? 
In whose confine immured is the store 
Which should example where your equal grew. 
Lean penury within that pen doth dwell 5 

1 hat to his subject lends not some small glory ; 
But he that writes of you, If he can tell 
That you ure you, so dignifies his story, 
Let him but copy what in you is writ. 
Not making worse what nature made so clear, 
And such a counterpart shall fame his wit, 11 
Making his style admired every where. 



You to your beauteous blessings add a curse. 
Being fond on praise, which makes your praises 
worse. 

85 
My tongue-tied Muse in manners holds her still, 
While comments of your praise, richly compiled, 
Reserve their character with golden quill. 
And precious phrase by all the Muses filed. 
I think good thoughts, whilst other write good 
words, 5 

And, like unletter'd clerk, still cry ' Amen ' 
To every hymn that able spirit atTords, 
In polish'd form of well refined pen. 
Hearing you praised, I say ' 'Tis so, 'tis true,' 
And to the most of praise add something more ; 
But that is in my thought, whose love to you, 11 
Though words come hindmost, holds his rank 
before. 
Then others for the breath of words respect, 
Me for my dumb thoughts, speaking in effect. 

86 

Was it the proud full sail of his great verse, 
Bound for the prize of all too precious you. 
That did my ripe thoughts in my brain inhearse, 
Making their tomb the womb wherein they grew? 
Was it his spirit, by spirits taught to write 5 
Above a mortal pitch, that struck me dead? 
No, neither he, nor his compeers by night 
Giving him aid my verse astonished. 
He, nor that affable familiar ghost 
Which nightly gulls him with intelligence, 
As victors, of my silence cannot boast ; H 

I was not sick of any fear from thence; 
But when your countenance fill'd up his line, 
Then lack'd I matter ; that enfeebled mine. 

87 
Farewell ! thou art too dear for my possessing, 
And like enough thou know'st thy estimate; 
The charter of thy worth gives thee releasing; 
My bonds in thee are all determinate. 4 

For how do I hold thee but by thy granting? 
And for that riches where is my deserving? 
The cause of this fair gift in me is wanting, 
And so my patent back again is swerving. 
Thyself thou gavest, thy own worth then not 
knowing, 9 

Or me, to whom thou gavest it, else mistaking; 
So thy great gift, upon misprision growing, 
Comes home again, on better judgement making. 
Thus have I had thee, as a dream doth flatter, 
In sleep a king, but waking no such matter. 

88 
When thou shalt be disposed to set me light. 
And place my merit in the eye of scorn 
Upon thy side against myself I'll fight, 
And prove thee virtuous, though thou art for- 
sworn. 
With mine own weakness being best acquainted, 
Upon thy part I can set down a story 6 

Of faults conceal'd, wherein I am attainted ; 
That thou in losing me shalt win much glory ; 
And I by this will be a gainer too ; 
For bending all my loving thoughts on thee, 
The injuries that to myself I do. It 

I)oing thee vantage, double-vantage me.

Such is my love, to thee I so belong, 

That for thy right myself will bear all wrong. 

89 

Say that thou didst forsake me for some fault, 
And I will comment upon that offence; 
Speak of my lameness, and I straight will halt, 
Against thy reasons making no defence. 
Thou canst not, love, disgrace me half so ill, 
To set a form upon desired change, 6 

As I'll myself disgrace; knowing thy will, 
I will acquaintance strangle and look strange; 
Be absent from thy walks ; and in my tongue 
Thy sweet beloved name no more shall dwell. 
Lest I, too much profane, should do it wrong, 
And haply of our old acquaintance tell. 12 

For thee, against myself I'll vow debate. 
For T must ne'er love him whom thou dost hate. 

90 

Then hate me when thou wilt ; if ever, now ; 
Now, while the world is bent my deeds to cross, 
Join with the spite of fortune, make me bow, 
And do not drop in for an after-loss ; 
Ah, do not, when my heart hath 'scaped this sor- 
row, 5 
Come in the rearward of a conquered woe ; 
Give not a windy night a rainy morrow, 
To linger out a purposed overthrow. 
If thou wilt leave me, do not leave me last, 
When other petty griefs have done their spite. 
But in the onset come ; so shall I taste 11 
At first the very worst of fortune's might; 
And other strains of woe, which now seem woe, 
Compared with loss of thee will not seem so. 

91 

Some glory in their birth, some in their skill, 
Some in their wealth, some in their body's force ; 
Some in their garments, though new-fangled ill; 
Some in their hawks and hounds, some in their 

horse ; 
And every humour hath his adjunct pleasure, 
Wherein it finds a joy above the rest ; 6 

But these particulars are not my measure ; 
All these I better in one general best. 
Thy love is better than high birth to me. 
Richer than wealth, prouder than garments' cost, 
Of more delight than hawks or horses be; 11 
And having thee, of all men's pride I boast ; 
Wretched in this alone, that thou mayst take 
All this away and me most wretched make. 

9S 

But do thy worst to steal thyself away, 

For term of life thou art assured mine; 

And life no longer than thy love will stay, 

For it depends upon that love of thine. 

Then need I not to fear the worst of wrongs, 5 

When in the least of them my life hath end. 

I see a better state to me belongs 

Than that which on thy humour doth depend ; 

Thou canst not vex me with inconstant mind, 

Since that my life on thy revolt doth lie. 10 

O, what a happy title do I find, 

Happy to have thy love, happy to die ! 

But what's so blessed-fair that fears no blot? 

Thou mayst be false, and yet I know it not. 



93 

So shall I live, supposing thou art true. 
Like a deceived husband ; so love's face 
May still seem love to me, though alter'd new; 
Thy looks with me, thy heart in other place; 
For there can live no hatred in thine eye, 5 

Therefore in that I cannot know thy change. 
In many's looks the false heart's history 
Is writ in moods and frowns and wrinkles strange. 
But heaven in thy creation did decree 9 

That in thy face sweet love should ever dwell ; 
Whate'er thy thoughts or thy heart's workings be. 
Thy looks should nothing thence but sweetness 
tell. 
How like Eve's apple doth thy beauty grow, 
If thy sweet virtue answer not thy show ! 

94 

They that have power to hurt and will do none, 
That do not do the thing they most do show. 
Who, moving others, are themselves as stone, 
Unmoved, cold, and to temptation slow ; 
They rightly do inherit heaven's graces 5 

And husband nature's riches from expense ; 
They are the lords and owners of their faces. 
Others but stewards of their excellence. 
The summer's ilower is to the summer sweet, 
Though to itself it only live and die, 10 

But if that flower with base infection meet. 
The basest weed outbraves his dignity ; 

For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds; 

Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds. 

95 

How sweet and lovely dost thou make the shnnie 
Which, like a canker in the fragrant rose, 
Doth spot the beauty of thy budding name I 
0, in what sweets dost thou thy sins inclose! 
That tongue that tells the story of thy days, 5 
Making lascivious comments on thy sport. 
Cannot dispraise but in a kind of praise; 
Naming thy name blesses an ill report. 
O, what a mansion have those vices got 
Which for their habitation chose out thee, 10 
Where beauty's veil doth cover every blot 
And all things turn to fair that eyes can see! 

Take heed, dear heart, of this large privilege; 

The hardest knife ill used doth lose his edge. 

96 

Some say, thy fault is youth, some wantonness; 
Some say, thy grace is youth and gentle sport; 
Both grace and faults are loved of more and less; 
Thou makest faults graces that to thee resort. 
As on the finger of a throned queen 5 

The basest jewel will be well esteeiu'd, 
So are those errors that in thee are seen 
To truths translated and for true things deem'd. 
How many lambs might the stern wolf betray, 
If like a lamb he could his looks traushite I 10 
How many gazers mightst thou lead away, 
If thou wouldst use the strength of all thy state 
But do not so; 1 love thee in such sort. 
As thou being mine, mine is thy good report. 

97 

How like a winter hath my absence been 
From thee, the pleasure of the fleeting year I 
What freezings have 1 felt, what dark days seeiit 
What old December's bareness every where! <

[Son. 97-105. 



And yet this time removed was summer's time ; 
The teeming autumn, hig with rich increase, 
Bearing the wanton burthen of the prime. 
Like widow'd wombs after their lord's decease; 
Yet this abundant issue seem'd to me 
But hope of orphans and unfather'd fruit ; 10 
For summer and his pleasures wait on thee. 
And, thou away, the very birds are mute ; 
Or, if they sing, 'tis with so dull a cheer 
That leaves look pale, dreading the winter's 
near. 

98 
From you have I been absent in the spring. 
When proud-pied April, dress'd in all his trim. 
Hath put a spirit of youth in every thing. 
That heavy Saturn laugh'd and leap'd with him. 
Yet nor the lays of birds, nor the sweet smell 5 
Of different flowers in odour and in hue. 
Could make me any summer's story tell. 
Or from their proud lap pluck them where they 

grew ; 
Nor did I wonder at the lily's white. 
Nor praise the deep vermillion in the rose ; 10 
They were but sweet, but figures of delight, 
Drawn after you, you pattern of all those. 
Yet seem'd it winter still, and, you away. 
As with your shadow I with these did play. 

99 

The forward violet thus did I chide : 

Sweet thief, whence didst thou steal thy sweet 

that smells. 
If not from my love's breath? The purple pride 
Which on thy soft cheek for complexion dwells 
In my love's veins thou hast too grossly dyed. 
The lily I condemned for thy hand, 6 

And buds of marjoram had stol'n thy hair ; 
The roses fearfully on thorns did stand, 
One blushing shame, another white despair ; 
A third, nor red nor white, had stol'n of both, 10 
And to his robbery had annex'd thy breath ; 
But, for his theft, in pride of all his growth 
A vengeful canker eat him up to death. 
More flowers I noted, yet I none could see 
But sweet or colour it had stol'n from thee. 

100 

Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long 
To speak of that which gives thee all thy might? 
Spend'st thou thy fury on some worthless song. 
Darkening thy power to lend base subjects light? 
Return, forgetful Muse, and straight redeem 
In gentle numbers time so idly spent ; 6 

Sing to the ear that doth thy lays esteem 
And gives thy pen both skill and argument. 
Rise, resty Muse, my love's sweet face survey. 
If Time have any wrinkle graven there ; 10 

If any, be a satire to decay. 
And make Time's spoils despised every where. 

Give my love fame faster than Time wastes life ; 

So thou prevent'st his scythe and crooked knife. 



O truant Muse, what shall be thy amends 
Foi thy neglect of truth in beauty dyed? 
Beth truth and beauty on my love depends ; 
80 dost thou too, and therein dignified. 4 



Make answer. Muse ; wilt thou not haply say : 

' Truth needs no colour, with his colour fix'd ; 

Beauty no pencil, beauty's truth to lay ; 

But best is best, if never intermix'd'? 

Because he needs no praise, wilt thou be dumb ? 

Excuse not silence so, for 't lies in thee 10 

To make him much outlive a gilded tomb 

And to be praised of ages yet to be. 
Then do thy oifice. Muse ; I teach thee how 
To make him seem long hence as he shows now. 

lOS 

My love is strengthen'd, though more weak in 

seeming; 
I love not less, though less the show appear ; 
That love is merchandized whose rich esteeming 
The owner's tongue doth publish every where. 
Our love was new, and then but in the spring, 5 
When I was wont to greet it with my lays ; 
As Philomel in summer's front doth sing, 
And stops her pipe in growth of riper days ; 
Not that the summer is less pleasant now 
Than when her mournful hymns did hush the 
night, 10 

But that wild music burthens every bough, 
And sweets grown common lose their dear delight. 
Therefore, like her, I sometime hold my tongue. 
Because I would not dull you with my song. 

103 

Alack, what poverty my Muse brings forth. 
That having such a scope to show her pride. 
The argument, all bare, is of more worth 
Than when it hath my added praise beside ! 
O, blame me not, if I no more can write ! 5- 

Look in your glass, and there appears a face 
That over-goes my blunt invention quite. 
Dulling my lines and doing me disgrace. 
Were it not sinful then, striving to mend. 
To mar the subject that before was well? 10 

For to no other pass my verses tend 
Than of your graces and your gifts to tell ; 
And more, much more, than in my verse can sit. 
Your own glass shows you when you look in it.. 

104 

To me, fair friend, you never can be old. 
For as you were when first your eye I eyed. 
Such seems your beauty still. Three winters cold 
Have from the forests shook three summers' pride. 
Three beauteous springs to yellow autvxmn turn'd 
In process of the seasons have I seen, 6 

Three April perfumes in three hot Junes burn'd, 
Since first I saw you fresh, which yet are green. 
Ah, yet doth beauty, like a dial-hand, 9 

Steal from his figure, and no pace perceived ; 
So your sweet hue, which methinks still doth 

stand. 
Hath motion, and mine eye may be deceived; 
For fear of which, hear this, thou age unbred 
Ere you were born was beauty's summer dead, 

105 

Let not my love be call'd idolatry. 
Nor my beloved as an idol show. 
Since all alike my songs and praises be 
To one, of one, still such, and ever so.

Kind is my love to-day, to-morrow kind, 5 

Still constant in a wondrous excellence ; 
Therefore my verse to constancy confined, 
One tMng expressing, leaves out difference. 
' Fair, kind, and true,' is all my argument, 
' Fair, kind, and true,' varying to other words ; 
And in this change is my invention spent, 11 
Three themes in one, which wondrous scope af- 
fords. 
' Fair, kind, and true,' have often lived alone. 
Which three till now never kept seat in one. 

106 

When in the chronicle of wasted time 
I see descriptions of the fairest wights, 
And beauty making beautiful old rhyme 
In praise of ladies dead and lovely knights. 
Then, in the blazon of sweet beauty's best, 5 
Of hand, of foot, of lip, of eye, of brow, 
I see their antique pen would have express'd 
Even such a beauty as you master now. 
So all their praises are but prophecies 
Of this our time, all you prefiguring ; 10 

A.nd, for they look'd but with divining eyes, 
They had not skill enough your worth to sing ; 
For we, which now behold these present days. 
Have eyes to wonder, but lack tongues to praise. 

Not mine own fears, nor the prophetic soul 
Of the wide world dreaming on things to come, 
Can yet the lease of my true love control. 
Supposed as forfeit to a confined doom. 
The mortal moon hath her eclipse endured, 5 
And the sad augurs mock their own presage ; 
Incertainties now crown themselves assured. 
And peace proclaims olives of endless age. 
Now with the drops of this most balmy time 9 
My love looks fresh, and Death to me subscribes. 
Since, spite of him, I'll live in this poor rhyme. 
While he insults o'er dull and speechless tribes ; 
And thou in this shalt find thy monument. 
When tyrants' crests and tombs of brass are 
spent. 

108 
What's in the brain, that ink may character. 
Which hath not figured to thee my true spirit ? 
What's new to speak, what new to register. 
That may express my love, or thy dear merit? 
Nothing, sweet boy ; but yet, like prayers divine, 
I must each day say o'er the very same ; 6 

Counting no old thing old, thou mine, I thine. 
Even as when first I hallow'd thy fair name. 
So that eternal love in love's fresh case 
Weighs not the dust and injury of age, 10 

Nor gives to necessary wrinkles place, 
But makes antiquity for aye his page ; 
Finding the first conceit of love there bred, 
Where time and outward form would show it 
dead. 

109 
O, never say that I was false of heart, 
Though absence seem'd my flame to qualify. 
As easy might I from myself depart 
As from my soul, which in thy breast doth lie ; 
That is my home of love ; if I have ranged, 5 
Like him that travels, I return again ; 
Just to the time, not with the time exchanged, 
80 that myself bring water for my stain. 



Never believe, though in my nature reign'd 
All frailties that besiege all kinds of blood, 10 
That it could so preposterously be stain'd. 
To leave for nothing all thy sura of good ; 
For nothing this wide universe I call. 
Save thou, my rose ; in it thou art my all. 

110 

Alas, 'tis true I have gone here and there. 

And made myself a motley to the view. 

Gored mine own thoughts, sold cheap what is 

most dear. 
Made old offences of affections new ; 
Most true it is that I have look'd on truth 5 

Askance and strangely ; but, by all above. 
These blenches gave my heart another youth, 
And worse essays proved thee my best of love. 
Now all is done, have what shall have no end ; 
Mine appetite I never more will grind 10 

On newer proof, to try an older friend, 
A god in love, to whom I am confined. 
Then give me welcome, next my heaven the 

best. 
Even to thy pure and most most loving breast. 

Ill 

O, for my sake do you with Fortune chide. 
The guilty goddess of my harmful deeds, 
That did not better for my Ufe provide 
Than public means which public manners breeds. 
Thence comes it that my name receives a brand, 
And almost thence my nature is subdued 6 

To what it works in, like the dyer's hand ; 
Pity me then and wish I were renew'd ; 
Whilst, like a willing patient, I will drink 
Potions of eisel 'gainst my strong infection ; 10 
No bitterness that I will bitter think, 
Nor double penance, to correct correction. 
Pity me then, dear friend, and I assure ye 
Even that your pity is enough to cure me. 

113 

Your love and pity doth the impression fill 
Which vulgar scandal stamp'd upon my brow ; 
For what care I who calls me well or ill. 
So you o'er-green my bad, my good allow ? 
You are my all the world, and I must strive 5 
To know my shames and praises from your 

tongue ; 
None else to me, nor I to none alive. 
That my steel'd sense or changes right or wrong. 
In so profound abysm I throw all care 
Of others' voices, that my adder's sense 10 

To critic and to flatterer stopped are. 
Mark how with my neglect I do dispense : 
You are so strongly in my purpose bred 
That all the world besides methinks are dead, 

113 

Since I left you mine eye is in my mind. 
And that which governs me to go about 
Doth part his function and is partly blind. 
Seems seeing, but effectually is out ; 
For it no form delivers to the heart 5 

Of bird, of flower, or shape, which it doth latch ; 
Of his quick objects hath the mind no part, 
Nor his own vision holds what it doth catch ;

For if it see the rudest or gentlest sight, 
The most sweet favour or deformed'st creature, 
The mountain or the sea, the day or night, 11 
The crow or dove, it shapes them to your feature; 
Incapable of more, replete with you. 
My most true mind thus maketh mine untrue. 

114 

Or whether doth my mind, heing crown'd with 

you, 
Drink up the monarch's plague, this flattery ? 
Or whether shall I say, mine eye saith true, 
And that your love taught it this alchemy, 
To make of monsters and things indigest 5 

Such cherubins as your sweet self resemble. 
Creating every bad a perfect best, 
As fast as objects to his beams assemble ? 
O, 'tis the first; 'tis flattery in my seeing, 9 

And my great mind most kingly drinks it up ; 
Mine eye well knows what with his gust is 'gree- 

ing, 
And to his palate doth prepare the cup ; 
If it be poison'd, 'tis the lesser sin 
That mine eye loves it and doth first begin. 

115 

Those lines that I before have writ do lie, 
Even those that said I could not love you dearer ; 
Yet then my judgement knew no reason why 
My most full flame should afterwards burn clearer. 
But reckoning Time, whose million'd accidents 5 
Creep in 'twixt vows, and change decrees of kings. 
Tan sacred beauty, blunt the sharp'st intents. 
Divert strong minds to the course of altering 

things ; 
Alas, why, fearing of Time's tyranny. 
Might I not then say ' Now I love you best,' 10 
When I was certain o'er incertainty, 
Crowning the present, doubting of the rest? 
Love is a babe ; then might I not say so, 
To give full growth to that which still doth 
grow? 

116 
Let me not to the marriage of true minds 
Admit impediments. Love is not love 
Which alters when it alteration finds. 
Or bends with the remover to remove ; 
O, no ! it is an ever-fixed mark, 5 

That looks on tempests and is never shaken ; 
It is the star to every wandering bark. 
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be 

taken. 
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks 
Within his bending sickle's compass come ; 10 
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks. 
But bears it out even to the edge of doom. 
If this be error and upon me proved, 
I never writ, nor no man ever loved. 

117 

Accuse me thus : that I have scanted all 
Wherein I should your great deserts repay, 
Forgot upon your dearest love to call. 
Whereto all bonds do tie me day by day ; 4 

That I have frequent been with unknown minds. 
And given to time your own dear-purchased right ; 
That I have hoisted sail to all the winds 
Which should transport me farthest from your 
sight. 



Book both my wilfulness and errors down. 
And on just proof surmise accumulate; 10 

Bring me within the level of your frown. 
But shoot not at me in your waken'd hate ; 
Since my appeal says I did strive to prove 
The constancy and virtue of your love. 

118 

Like as, to make our appetites more keen, 
With eager compounds we our palate urge ; 
As, to prevent our maladies unseen. 
We sicken to shun sickness when we purge ; 
Even so, being full of your ne'er-cloying sweet- 
ness, 6 
To bitter sauces did I frame my feeding; 
And sick of welfare found a kind of meetness 
To be diseased, ere that there was true needing. 
Thus policy in love, to anticipate 
The ills that were not, grew to faults assured, 
And brought to medicine a healthful state, 11 
Which, rank of goodness, would by ill be cured ; 
But thence I learn, and find the lesson true, 
Drugs poison him that so fell sick of you. 

119 

What potions have I drunk of Siren tears, 
Distill'd from limbecks foul as hell within. 
Applying fears to hopes and hopes to fears, 
Still losing when I saw myself to win ! 4 

What wretched errors hath my heart committed, 
Whilst it hath thought itself so blessed never ! 
How have mine eyes out of their spheres been 

fitted. 
In the distraction of this madding fever ! 
benefit of ill ! now I find true 
That better is by evil still made better ; 10 

And ruin'd love, when it is built anew. 
Grows fairer than at first, more strong, far greater. 
So I return rebuked to my content. 
And gained by ill thrice more than I have spent. 

ISO 

That you were once unkind befriends me now, 
And for that sorrow which I then did feel 
Needs must I under my transgression bow, 
Unless my nerves were brass or hammer'd steeL 
For if you were by my un kindness shaken, 5 
As I by yours, you've pass'd a hell of time ; 
And I, a tyrant, have no leisure taken 
To weigh how once I suffer'd in your crime. 
O, that our night of woe might have remember'd 
My deepest sense, how hard true sorrow hits, 10 
And soon to you, as you to me, then tender'd 
The humble salve which wounded bosoms fits! 

But that your trespass now becomes a fee ; 

Mine ransoms yours, and yours must ransom 
me. 

121 

'Tis better to be vUe than vile esteemed, 
When not to be receives reproach of being ; 
And the just pleasure lost, which is so deemed 
Not by our feeling, but by others' seeing ; 
For why should others' false adulterate eyes 5 
Give salutation to my sportive blood ? 
Or on my frailties why are frailer spies, 
Which in their wUls count bad what I think 
good?

All men are bad and in their badness reign.

rhy gift, thy tables, are within my brain 
Full charactered with lasting memory,

Beyond all date, even to eternity ;

Have faculty by nature to subsist ; 
Till each to razed oblivion yield his part 
Of thee, thy record never can be miss'd. 
That poor retention could not so much hold, 
Nor need I tallies thy dear love to score ; 10 

Therefore to give them from me was I bold, 
To trust those tables that receive thee more ; 
To keep an adjunct to remember thee 
Were to import forgetfulness in me.

No, Time, thou shalt not boast that I do change ; 
Thy pyramids built up with newer might 
To me are nothing novel, nothing strange ; 
They are but dressings of a former sight. 
Our dates are brief, and therefore we admire 
What thou dost foist upon us that is old ; 6 

And rather make them born to our desire 
Than think that we before have heard them told. 
Thy registers and thee I both defy, 
Not wondering at the present nor the past, 10 
For thy records and what we see doth lie, 
Made more or less by thy continual haste. 
This I do vow, and this shall ever be,

If my dear love were but the child of state, 
It might for Fortune's bastard be unfather'd, 
As subject to Time's love or to Time's hate, 
Weeds among weeds, or flowers with flowers 

gather'd. 
No, it was builded far from accident ; 5 

It suffers not in smiling pomp, nor falls 
Under the blow of thralled discontent, 
Whereto th' inviting time our fashion calls ; 
It fears not policy, that heretic, 
Which works on leases of short-number'd hours. 
But all alone stands hugely politic, 11 

That it nor grows with heat nor drowns with 
showers. 
To this I witness call the fools of time, 
Which die for goodness, who have lived for 
crime.

Were 't aught to me I bore the canopy, 
With my extern the outward honouring, 
Or laid great bases for eternity,

Lose all, and more, by paying too much rent, 
For compound sweet foregoing simple savour 
Pitiful thrivers, in their gazing spent? 



No, let me be obsequious in thy heart. 
And take thou my oblation, poor but free, 10 
Which is not mix'd with seconds, knows no art 
But mutual render, only me for thee. 
Hence, thou suborn'd informer ! a true soul 
When most impeach'd stands least in thy con- 
trol. 

126 

O thou, my lovely boy, who in thy power 
Dost hold Time's fickle glass, his sickle, hf>ur; 
Who hast by waning grown, and therein sliow'st 
Thy lovers withering as thy sweet self grow'st ; 
If Nature, sovereign mistress over wrack, 5 

As thou goest onwards, still will pluck thee back, 
She keeps thee to this purpose, that her skill 
May time disgrace and wretched minutes kill. 
Yet fear her, O thou minion of her pleasure! 
She may detain, but not still keep, her treasure ; 
Her audit, though delay'd, answer'd must be, 
And her quietus is to render thee. 12 

127' 

In the old age black was not counted fair, 
Or if it were, it bore not beauty's name ; 
But now is black beauty's successive heir, 
And beauty slander'd with a bastard shame ; 4 
For since each hand hath put on nature's power, 
Fairing the foul with art's false borrow'd face, 
Sweet beauty hath no name, no holy bower, 
But is profaned, if not lives in disgrace. 
Therefore my mistress' eyes are raven black, 
Her eyes so suited, and tliey mourners seem 
At such who, not born fair, no beauty lack, 11 
Slandering creation with a false esteem ; 
Yet so they mourn, becoming of their woe, 
That every tongue says beauty should look so. 

128 
How oft, when thou, my music, music play'st, 
Upon that blessed wood whose motion sounds 
With thy sweet fingers, when thou gently sway'st 
The wiry concord that mine ear confounds, 
Do I envy those jacks that nimble leap 5 

To kiss the tender inward of thy hand. 
Whilst my poor lips, which should that harvest 

reap, 
At the wood's boldness by thee blushing stand ! 
To be so tickled, they would change their state 
And situation with those dancing chips, 10 

O'er whom thy fingers walk with gentle gait, 
Making dead wood more blest than living lips. 
Since saucy jacks so happy are in this, 
Give them thy fingers, me thy lips to kiss. 

129 

The expense of spirit in a waste of shame 

Is lust in action ; and till action, lust 

Is perjured, murderous, bloody, full of Mame, 

Savage, extreme, rude, cruel, not to trust; 

Enjoy'd no sooner but despised straight; 6 

Past reason hunted ; and no sooner had, 

Past reason hated, as a swallow'd bait. 

On purpose laid to make the taker mad; 

Mad in pursuit, and in possession so ; 

Had, having, and in quest to have, extreme; 

A bliss in proof, and proved, a very woe; 11 

Before, a joy proposed ; behiud, a dream.

SONNETS 



[Son. 129-137. 



All this the world well knows; yet none knows 

well 
To shun the heaven that leads men to this hell. 

130 

My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun ; 

Coral is far more red than her lips' red ; 

If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun ; 

If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. 

I have seen roses damask'd red and white, 5 

But no such roses see I in her cheeks ; 

A.nd in some perfumes is there more delight 

Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. 

I love to hear her speak, yet well I know 

That music hath a far more pleasing sound ; 10 

I grant I never saw a goddess go, 

My mistress, when she walks, treads on the 
ground ; 
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare 
As any she belied with false compare. 

131 

Thou art as tyrannous, so as thou art, 
As those whose beauties proudly make them cruel ; 
For well thou know'st to my dear doting heart 
Thou art the fairest and most precious jewel. 
Yet, in good faith, some say that thee behold, 5 
Thy face hath not the power to make love groan ; 
To say they err I dare not be so bold. 
Although I swear it to myself alone. 
And to be sure that is not false I swear, 
A thousand groans, but thinking on thy face. 
One on another's neck, do witness bear 11 

Thy black is fairest in my judgement's place. 
In nothing art thou black save in thy deeds, 
And thence this slander, as I think, proceeds. 

133 

Thine eyes I love, and they, as pitying me, 
Knowing thy heart torments me with disdain. 
Have put on black and loving mourners be. 
Looking with pretty ruth upon my pain. 
And truly not the morning sun of heaven 5 

Better becomes the grey cheeks of the east, 
Nor that full star that ushers in the even 
Doth half that glory to the sober west, 
As those two mourning eyes become thy face ; 
O, let it then as well beseem thy heart 10 

To mourn for me, since mourning doth thee grace. 
And suit thy pity like in every part. 
Then will I swear beauty herself is black. 
And all they foul that thy complexion lack. 

133 

Beshrew that heart that makes my heart to groan 
For that deep wound it gives my friend and me ! 
Is't not enough to torture me alone. 
But slave 10 slavery my sweet'st friend must be? 
Me from myself thy cruel eye hath taken, 5 

And my next self thou harder hast engrossed ; 
Of him, myself, and thee, I am forsaken ; 
A torment thrice threefold thus to be crossed. 
Prison my heart in thy steel bosom's ward. 
But then my friend's heart let my poor heart bail ; 
Whoe'er keeps me, let my heart be his guard ; 11 
Thou canst not then use rigour in my gaol ; 
And yet thou wilt ; for I, being pent in thee, 
Perforce am thine, and all that is in me. 



134 

So, now I have confess'd that he is thine 

And I myself am mortgaged to thy will, 

Myself I'll forfeit, so that other mine 

Thou wilt restore, to be my comfort still; 

But thou wilt not, 7ior he will not be free, 5 

For thou art covetous and he is kind ; 

He learn'd but surety-like to write for me. 

Under that bond that him as fast doth bind. 

The statute of thy beauty thou wilt take. 

Thou usurer, that put'st forth all to use, 10 

And sue a friend came debtor for m^' sake ; 

So him I lose through my unkind abuse. 

Him have I lost ; thou hast both him and me ; 

He pays the whole, and yet am I not free. 



135 

Whoever hath her wish, thou hast thy ' Will,' 
And ' Will ' to boot, and ' Will ' in overplus ; 
More than enough am I that vex thee still. 
To thy sweet will making addition thus. 
Wilt thou, whose will is large and spacious, 5 
Not once vouchsafe to hide my will in thine? 
Shall will in others seem right gracious. 
And in my will no fair acceptance shine ? 
The sea, all water, yet receives rain still. 
And in abundance addeth to his store ; 10 

So thou, being rich in ' Will,' add to thy ' Will ' 
One will of mine, to make thy large ' Will ' more. 

Let no unkind, no fair beseechers kill ; 

Think all but one, and me in that one ' Will. 

136 

If thy soul check thee that I come so near. 
Swear to thy blind soul that I was thy ' Will,' 
And will, thy soul knows, is admitted there ; 
Thus far for love, my love-suit, sweet, fulfil. 
' Will ' will fulfil the treasure of thy love, 5 

Ay, fill it full with wills, and my will one. 
In things of great receipt with ease we prove 
Among a number one is reckon'd none-; 
Then in the number let me pass untold. 
Though in thy stores' account I one must be ; 
For nothing hold me, so it please thee hold 11 
That nothing me, a something sweet to thee ; 
Make but my name thy love, and love that stUl, 
And then thou lovest me, for my name is ' Will.' 



isr 

Thou blind fool, Love, what dost thou to mine eyes, 
That they behold, and see not what they see ? 
They know what beauty is, see where it Ues, 
Yet what the best is take the worst to be. 
If eyes, corrupt by over-partial looks, 5 

Be anchor'd in the bay where all men ride. 
Why of eyes' falsehood hast thou forged hooks. 
Whereto the judgement of my heart is tied ? 
Why should my heart think that a several plot 
Which my heart knows the wide world's common 

place ? 10 

Or mine eyes seeing this, say this is not. 
To put fair truth upon so foul a face ? 
In things right true my heart and eyes have 

erred. 
And to this false plague are they now tran* 

f erred.

13S 
When my love swears that she is made of truth, 
I do believe her, though I know she lies. 
That she might think me some untutor'd youth. 
Unlearned in the world's false subtleties. 
Thus vainly thinking that she thinks me young. 
Although she knows my days are past the best, 
Simply I credit her false-speaking tongue ; 7 

On both sides thus is simple truth supprest. 
But wherefore says she not she is unjust? 
And wherefore say not I that I am old? 10 

O, love's best habit is in seeming trust. 
And age in love loves not to have years told ; 
Therefore I lie with her and she with me, 
And in our faults by lies we flatter'd be. 

139 

O, call not me to justify the wrong 

That thy unkindness lays upon my heart ; 

Wound me not with thine eye, but with thy 

tongue ; 
Use power with power, and slay me not by art. 
Tell me thou lovest elsewhere ; but in my sight, 
Dear heart, forbear to glance thine eye aside ; 6 
What need'st thou wound with cunning, when 

thy might 
Is more than my o'er-press'd defence can bide? 
Let me excuse thee : ah, my love well knows 
Her pretty looks have been mine enemies ; 10 
And therefore from my face she turns my foes, 
That they elsewhere might dart their injuries ; 
Yet do not so ; but since I am near slain, 
Kill me outright with looks, and rid my pain. 

140 

Be wise as thou art cruel ; do not press 
My tongue-tied patience with too much disdain ; 
Lest sorrow lend me words, and words express 
The manner of my pity-wanting pain. 
If I might teach thee wit, better it were, 5 

Though not to love, yet, love, to tell me so ; 
As testy sick men, when their deaths be near. 
No news but health from their physicians know ; 
For, if I should despair, I should grow mad. 
And in my madness might speak ill of thee ; 
Now this ill-wresting world is grown so bad. 
Mad slanderers by mad ears believed be. 12 

That I may not be so, nor thou belied, 
Bear thine eyes straight, though thy proud 
heart go wide. 

141 

In faith, I do not love thee with mine eyes. 
For they in thee a thousand errors note ; 
But 'tis my heart that loves what they despise. 
Who, in despite of view, is pleased to dote ; 
Nor are mine ears with thy tongue's tune de- 
lighted ; 5 
Nor tender feeling, to base touches prone, 
Nor taste, nor smell, desire to be invited 
To any sensual feast with thee alone ; 
But my five wits nor my five senses can 9 
Dissuade one foolish heart from serving thee, 
Who leaves unsway'd the likeness of a man. 
Thy proud heart's slave and vassal wretch to be ; 
Only my plague thus far I count my gain, 
Tbat she that makes me sin awards me pain. 



143 

Love is my sin, and thy dear virtue hate. 
Hate of my sin, grounded on sinful loving ; 
O, but with mine compare thou thine own state 
And thou shalt find it merits not reproving ; 
Or, if it do, not from those lips of thine, 5 

That have profaned their scarlet ornaments 
And seal'd false bonds of love as oft as mine, 
Kobb'd others' beds' revenues of their rents. 
Be it lawful I love thee, as thou lovest those 
Whom thine eyes woo as mine importune thee ; 
Root pity in thy heart, that, when it grows, 
Thy pity may deserve to pitied be. 12 

If thou dost seek to have what thou dost hide., 
By self-example mayst thou be denied 1 

143 

Lo, as a careful housewife runs to catch 
One of her feather'd creatures broke away. 
Sets down her babe, and makes all swift dispatch 
In pursuit of the thing she would have stay ; 
Whilst her neglected child holds her in chase. 
Cries to catch her whose busy care is bent 6 

To follow that which flies before her face. 
Not prizing her poor infant's discontent ; 
So runn'st thou after that which flies from thee, 
Whilst I thy babe chase thee afar behind ; 10 
But if thou catch thy hope, turn back to me, 
And play the mother's part, kiss me, be kind ; 
So will I pray that thou mayst have thy ' Will,' 
If thou turn back and my loud crying still. 

144 

Two loves I have of comfort and despair, 
Which like two spirits do suggest me still ; 
The better angel is a man right fair, 
The worser spirit a woman colour'd ill. 
To win me soon to hell, my female evil 5 

Tempteth my better angel from my side. 
And would corrupt my saint to be a devil, 
Wooing his purity with her foul pride. 
And whether that my angel be turn'd fiend 
Suspect I may, yet not directly tell ; 10 

But being both from me, both to each friend, 
I guess one angel in another's hell ; 
Yet this shall I ne'er know, but live in doubt, 
Till my bad angel fire my good one out. 

145 

Those lips that Love's own hand did make 

Breathed forth the sound that said ' I hate,' 

To me that languish'd for her sake ; 

But when she saw my woeful state. 

Straight in her heart did mercy come, 5 

Chiding that tongue that ever sweet 

Was used in giving gentle doom ; 

And taught it thus anew to greet ; 

' I hate ' she alter'd with an end. 

That foUow'd it as gentle day 10 

Doth follow night, who, like a fiend, 

From heaven to hell is flown away ; 
' I hate ' from hate away she threw. 
And saved my life, saying ' not you.' 

146 

Poor soul, the centre of my sinful earth, 

My sinful earth these rebel powers that thee ar« 

ray. 
Why dost thou pine within and suffer dearth, 
Painting thy outward walls so costly gay 7

SONNETS 



[Son 146-154. 



Why so large cost, having so short a lease, 5 

Dost thou upon thy fading mansion spend? 
Shall worms, inheritors of this excess. 
Eat up thy charge ? is this thy body's end ? 
Then, soul, live thou upon thy servant's loss, 
And let that pine to aggravate thy store ; 10 

Buy terms divine in selling hours of dross ; 
Within be fed, without be rich no more ; 
So shalt thou feed on Death, that feeds on men, 
And Death once dead, there's no more dying 
then. 

My love is as a fever, longing still 

For that vrhich longer nurseth the disease ; 

Feeding on that which doth preserve the ill. 

The uncertain sickly appetite to please. 

My reason, the physician to my love, 5 

Angry that his prescriptions are not kept, 

Hath left me, and I desperate now approve 

Desire is death, which physic did except. 

Fast cure I am, now reason is past care, 

And frantic-mad with evermore unrest ; 10 

My thoughts and my discourse as madmen's are. 

At random from the truth vainly express'd ; 

For I have sworn thee fair, and thought thee 
bright, 

Who art as black as hell, as dark as night. 

148 

O me, what eyes hath Love put in my head, 
Which have no correspondence with true sight ! 
Or, if they have, where is my judgement fled, 
That censures falsely what they see aright? 
If that be fair whereon my false eyes dote, 5 
What means the world to say it is not so ? 
If it be not, then love doth well denote 
Love's eye is not so true as all men's ; no. 
How can it? O, how can Love's eye be true, 
That is so vex'd with watching and with tears? 
No marvel then, though I mistake my view ; 11 
The sun itself sees not till heaven clears. 

O cunning Love! with tears thou keep'st me 
blind. 

Lest eyes well-seeing thy foul faults should find. 

149 

Canst thou, cruel ! say I love thee not, 
When I against myself with thee partake? 
Do I not think on thee, when I forgot 
Am of myself, all tyrant, for thy sake? 
Who hateth thee that I do call my friend? 5 

On whom frown'st thou that I do fawn upon? 
Nay, if thou lour'st on me, do I not spend 
Revenge upon myself with present moan ? 
What merit do I in myself respect, 
That is so proud thy service to despise, 10 

When all my best doth worship thy defect. 
Commanded by the motion of thine eyes ? 

But, love, hate on, for now I know thy mind ; 

Those tliat can see thou lovest, and I am blind. 

ISO 

0, from what power hast thou this powerful might 
With insufficiency my heart to sway ? 
To make me give the lie to my true sight. 
And swear that brightness doth not grace the day ? 
Whence hast thou this becoming of things ill. 
That in the very refuse of thy deeds 6 

There is such strength and warrantise of skill. 
That, in my mind, thy worst all best exceeds ? 



Who taught thee how to make me love thee more. 
The more I hear and see just cause of hate? 

0, though I love what others do abhor, 11 
With others thou shouldst not abhor my state ; 

If thy unworthiness raised love in me. 
More worthy I to be beloved of thee. 

151 

Love is too young to know what conscience is; 
Yet who knows not conscience is born of lovo? 
Then, gentle cheater, urge not my amiss. 
Lest guilty of my faults thy sweet self prove ; 
For, thou betraying me, I do betray 5 

My nobler part to my gross body's treason ; 
My soul doth tell my body that he may 
Triumph in love ; flesh stays no farther reason, 
But rising at thy name doth point out thee 
As his triumphant prize. Proud of this pride, 
He is contented thy poor drudge to be, 11 

To stand in thy affairs, fall by thy side. 
No want of conscience hold it that I call 
Her 'love' for whose dear love I rise and fall. 

153 

In loving thee thou know'st I am forsworn, 
But thou art twice forsworn, to me love swearing ; 
In act thy bed-vow broke, and new faith torn, 
In vowing new hate after new love bearing. 4 
But why of two oaths' breach do I accuse thee, 
When I break twenty ? I am perjured most ; 
For all my vows are oaths but to misuse thee, 
And all my honest faith in thee is lost ; 
For I have sworn deep oaths of thy deep kindness, 
Oaths of thy love, thy truth, thy constancy ; 10 
And, to enlighten thee, gave eyes to blindness, 
Or made them swear against the thing they see ; 
For I have sworn thee fair ; more perjured I, 
To swear against the truth so foul a lie ! 

153 

Cupid laid by his brand and fell asleep ; 
A maid of Dian's this advantage found. 
And his love-kindling fire did quickly steep 
In a cold valley-fountain of that ground ; 
Which borrow'd from this holy fire of Love 5 
A dateless, lively heat, still to endure. 
And grew a seething bath, which yet men prove 
Against strange maladies a sovereign cure. 
But at my mistress' eye Love's brand new-fired. 
The boy for trial needs would touch my breast ; 

1, sick withal, the help of bath desired, 11 
And thither hied, a sad distemper'd guest. 

But found no cure ; the bath for my help lies 
Where Cupid got new fire, my mistress' eyes. 

154 

The little Love-god lying once asleep 
Laid by his side his heart-inflaming brand. 
Whilst many nymphs that vow'd chaste life to 

keep 
Came tripping by ; but in her maiden hand 
The fairest votary took up that fire 5 

Which many legions of true hearts had warm'd ; 
And so the general of hot desire 
Was sleeping by a virgin hand disarm'd. 
This brand she quenched in a cool well by. 
Which from Love's fire took heat perpetual, 10 
Growing a bath and healthful remedy 
For men diseased ; but I, my mistress' thrall, 
Came there for cure, and this by that I prove, 
Love's fire heats water, water cools not love. 



A LOVER'S COMPLAINT 



FsOM off a hill whose concave womb re-worded 

A plaintful story from a sistering vale, 

My spirits to attend this double voice accorded, 

And down I laid to list the sad-tuned tale ; 

Ere long espied a fickle maid full pale, 5 

Tearing of papers, breaking rings a-twain. 

Storming her world with sorrow's wind and rain. 

Upon her head a platted hive of straw. 
Which fortified her visage from the sun, 
Whereon the thought might think sometime it saw 
The carcass of a beauty spent and done ; 11 

Time had not scythed all that youth begun, 
Nor youth all quit ; but, spite of heaven's fell rage. 
Some beauty peep'd through lattice of sear'd age. 

Oft did she heave her napkin to her eyne, 15 
Which on it had conceited characters, 
Laundering the silken figures in the brine 
That season'd woe had pelleted in tears. 
And often reading what contents it bears ; 
As often shrieking undistiuguish'd woe, 20 

In clamours of all size, both high and low. 

Sometimes her levell'd eyes their carriage ride. 
As they did battery to the spheres intend ; 
Sometime diverted their poor balls are tied 24 
To the orbed earth ; sometimes they do extend 
Their view right on ; anon their gazes lend 
To every place at once, and nowhere flx'd 
The mind and sight distractedly commix'd. 

Her hair, nor loose nor tied in formal plat, 
Proclaim'd in her a careless hand of pride ; 30 
For some, untuck'd, descended her sheaved hat, 
Hanging her pale and pined cheek beside ; 
Some in her threaden fillet still did bide. 
And, true to bondage, would not break from 
thence, S4 

Though slackly braided in loose negligence. 

A thousand favours from a maund she drew 
Of amber, crystal, and of beaded jet. 
Which one by one she in a river threw, 
Upon whose weeping margent she was set ; 
Like usury, applying wet to wet, 40 

Or monarch's hands that lets not bounty fall 
Where want cries some, but where excess begs all. 

Of folded schedules had she many a one. 
Which she perused, sigh'd, tore, and gave the flood ; 
Crack'd many a ring of posied gold and bone, 
Bidding thom find their sepulchres in mud ; 46 
Found yet moe letters-sadly penn'd in blood. 
With sleided silk feat and affectedly 
Enswathed, and seal'd to curious secrecy. 



These often bathed she in her fluxive eyes, 50 
And often kiss'd, and often 'gan to tear ; 
Cried, ' O false blood, thou register of lies, 
What unapproved witness dost thou bear ! 
Ink would have seem'd more black and damned 

here !' 
This said, in top of rage the lines she rents, .55 
Big discontent so breaking their contents. 

A reverend man that grazed his cattle nigh, — 

Sometime a blusterer, that the ruffle knew 

Of court, of city, and had let go by 

The swiftest hours, observed as they flew, — 60 

Towards this afflicted fancy fastly drew ; 

And, privileged by age, desires to know 

In brief the grounds and motives of her woe. 

So slides he down upon his grained bat, 

And comely-distant sits he by her side ; TiJ 

When he again desires her, being sat. 

Her grievance with his hearing to divide : 

If that from him there may be aught applied 

Which may her suffering ecstasy assuage, 

'Tis promised in the charity of age. 70 

'Father,' she says, 'though in me you behold 
The injury of many a blasting hour, 
Let it not tell your judgement I am old ; 
Not age, but sorrow, over me hath power ; 
I might as yet have been a spreading flower, 
Fresh to myself, if I had self-applied 76 

Love to myself, and to no love beside. 

' But, woe is me ! too early I attended 
A youthful suit, — it was to gain my grace, — 
Of one by nature's outwards so commended, 
That maidens' eyes stuck over all his face ; 81 
Love lack'd a dwelling and made him her place ; 
And when in his fair parts she did abide, 
She was new lodged and newly deified. 

' His browny locks did hang in crooked curls r 
And every light occasion of the wind 86 

Upon his lips their silken parcels hurls. 
What's sweet to do, to do will aptly find; 
Each eye that saw him did enchant the mind ; 
For on his visage was in little drawn 90 

What largeness thinks in Paradise was sawn. 

'Small show of man was yet upon his chin; 
His phoenix down began but to appear, 
Like unshorn velvet, on that termless skin, 34 
Whose bare out-bragg'd the web it seem'd to wear • 
Yet showed his visage by that cost more dear • 
And nice affections wavering stood in doubt 
If best were as it was, or best without.

' His qualities were beauteous as his form, 99 
For maiden-tongued lie was, and thereof free ; 
Yet, if men moved him, was he such a storm

When winds breathe sweet, unruly though they 

be. 
His rudeness so with his authorized youth 
Did livery faisjness in a pride of truth. 105

Proud of subjection, noble by the sway.

Or he Ms manage by the well-doing steed.

Of young, of old, and sexes both enchanted. 
To dwell with him in thoughts, or to remain 129 
In personal duty, following where he haunted; 
Consents bewitched, ere he desire, have granted, 
And dialogued for him what he would say, 
Ask'd their own wills and made their wills obey. 

' Many there were that did his picture get, 134 
To serve their eyes, and in it put their mind ;

And labouring in moe pleasures to bestow them

' Yet did I not, as some my equals did. 
Demand of him, nor being desired yielded ; 
Finding myself in honour so forbid, 150 

With safest distance I mine honour shielded ; 
Experience for me many bulwarks builded 
Of proofs new-bleeding, which remain'd the foil 
Of this false jewel, and his amorous spoil. 

' But, ah, who ever shunn'd by precedent 155 
The destined ill she must herself assay? 
Or forced examples, 'gainst her own content, 



To put the by-past perils 'n her way ? 
Counsel may stop awhile what will not stay ; 
For when we rage, advice is often seen 160 

By blunting us to make our wits more keen. 

' Nor gives it satisfaction to our blood. 

That we must curb it upon others' proof; 

To be forbod the sweets that seen . so good, 164 

For fear of harms that preach in ciir behoof 

appetite, from judgement stand aloof! 
The one a palate hath that needs will taste, 
Though Reason weep, and cry " It is thy last." 

' For further I could say •' This man's untrue," 
And knew the patterns cf his foul beguiling ; 170 
Heard where his plants in others' orchards grew. 
Saw how deceits were gilded in his smiling ; 
Knew vows were ever brokers to defiling; 
Thought characters and words merely but art. 
And bastards of his foul adulterate heart. 175 

' And long upon these torms I held my city, 
Till thus he 'gan besiege me : " Gentle maid, 
Have of my suffering youth some feeling pity. 
And be not of my holy vows afraid ; 
That's to ye sworn to none was ever said ; 180 
For feasts of love I have been call'd unto. 
Till now did ne'er invite, nor never woo. 

' " All my offences that abroad you see 
Are errors of the blood, none of the mind ; 
Love made them not ; with acture they may be. 
Where neither party is nor true nor kind ; 186 
They sought their shame that so their shame did 

find; 
And so much less of shame in me remains 
By how much of mo their reproach contains. 

' "Among the many that mine eyes have seen. 
Not one whose flame my heart so much as warmed. 
Or my affection put to the smallest teen, 192 

Or any of my leisures ever charmed ; 
Harm have I done to them, but ne'er was harmed ; 
Kept hearts in liveries, but mine own was free, 
And reign'd, commanding in his monarchy. 196 

' "Look here, what tributes wounded fancies sent 

me, 
Of paled pearls and rubies red as blood ; 
Figuring that they their passions likewise lent me 
Of grief and blushes, aptly understood 200 

In bloodless white and the encrimson'd mood; 
Effects of terror and dear modesty, 
Encamp'd in hearts, but fighting outwardly. 

' "And, lo, behold these talents of their hair, 
With twisted metal amorously impleach'd, 205 

1 have received from many a several fair. 
Their kind acceptance weepingly beseech'd. 
With the annexions of fair gems enrich'd. 

And deep-brain'd sonnets that did amplify 209 
Each stone's dear nature, worth, and quality. 

' "The diamond, why, 'twas beautiful and hard, 
Whereto his invised properties did tend ; 
The deep-green emerald, in whose fresh regard 
Weak sights their sickly radiance do amend ; 
The heaven-hued sapphire and the opal blend 
With objects manifcvJ • 3ach several stone, 216 
With wit well blazon' i ^rxUed or made some moan.

A LOVER'S COMPLAINT 



417 



•"Lo, all these trophies of aflfections hot, 
Of pensived and suhdued desires the tender, 
Nature hath charged me that 1 hoard them not. 
But yield them up where I myself must render, 
That is, to you, my origin and ender ; 222 

For these, of force, must your oblations be. 
Since I their altar, you enpatron me. 

' " O, then, advance of yours that phraseless hand, 
Whose white weighs down the airy scale of praise ; 
Take all these similes to your own command, 227 
Hallow'd with sighs that burning lungs did raise ; 
What me your minister, for you obeys, 
Works under you ; and to your audit comes 
Their distract parcels in combined sums. 231 

'" Lo, this device was sent me from a nun., 

Or sister sanctified, of holiest note ; 

Which late her noble suit in court did shun. 

Whose rarest havings made the blossoms dote; 

For she was sought by spirits of richest coat. 

But kept cold distance, and did thence remove. 

To spend her living in eternal love. 238 

' " But, O my sweet, what labour is 't to leave 
The thing we have not, mastering what not strives, 
Playing the place which did no form receive, 241 
Playing patient sports in unconstrained gyves? 
She that her fame so to herself contrives, 
The scars of battle 'scapeth by the flight, 244 
And makes her absence valiant, not her might. 

' " O, pardon me, in that my boast is true ; 
The accident which brought me to her eye 
Upon the moment did her force subdue. 
And now she would the caged cloister fly; 
Religious love put out Religion's eye ; 250 

Not to be tempted, would she be immured. 
And now, to tempt all, liberty procured. 

' " How mighty then you are, O, hear me tell ! 

The broken bosoms that to me belong 

Have emptied all their fountains in my well, 

And mine I pour your ocean all among; 256 

I strong o'er them, and you o'er me being strong, 

Must for your victory us all congest, 

As compound love to physic your cold breast. 

•"My parts had power to charm a sacred nun. 
Who disciplined, ay, dieted in grace, 261 

Believed her eyes when they to assail begun, 
All vows and consecrations giving place ; 
O most potential love ! vow, bond, nor space, 
In thee hath neither sting, knot, nor confine, 265 
For thou art all, and all things else are thine. 

' "When thou impressest, what are precepts worth 
Of stale example? When thou wilt inflame. 
How coldly those impediments stand forth 
Of wealth, of filial fear, law, kindred, I'aaie ! 
Love's arms are peace, 'gainst rule, 'gainst sense, 
'gainst shame ; 271 

And sweetens, in the suffering pangs it bears, 
The aloes of all forces, shocks and fears. 

27 



' " Now all these hearts that do on mine depend, 
Feeling it break, with leading groans they pine ; 
And supplicant their sighs to you extend, 276 
To leave the battery that you make 'gainst mine. 
Lending soft audience to my sweet des'gn. 
And credent soul to that strong-bonded oath 
That shall prefer and undertake my troth." 280 

' This said, his watery eyes he did dismount. 
Whose sights till then were levell'd on my face ; 
Each cheek a river running from a fount 283 
With brinish current downward flow'd apace ; 
O, how the channel to the stream gave grace ! 
Who glazed with crystal gate the glowing roses 
That flame through water which their hue en- 
closes. 

' O father, what a hell of witchcraft lies 

In the small orb of one particular tear ! 

But with the inundation of the eyes 290 

What rocky heart to water will not wear? 

What breast so cold that is not warmed here? 

O cleft eflfect ! cold modesty, hot wrath. 

Both fire from hence and chill extincture hath. 

' For, lo, his passion, but an art of craft, 295 

Even there resolved my reason into tears ; 
There my white stole of chastity I dafF'd, 
Shook ofl" mv sober guards and civil fears; 
Appear to him, as he to me appears, 299 

All melting ; though our drops this difference bore, 
His poison'd me, and mine did him restore. 

' In him a plenitude of subtle matter, 
Applied to cautels, all strange forms receives, 
Of burning blushes, or of weeping water, 304 
Or swounding paleness; and he takes and leaves, 
In either's aptness, as it best deceives. 
To blush at speeches rank, to weep at woes, 
Or to turn white and swound at tragic shows ; 

' That not a heart which in his level came 
Could 'scape the haU of his all-hurting aim, 310 
Showing fair nature is both kind and tame ; 
And, veil'd in them, did win whom he would maim , 
Against the thing he sought he would exclaim ; 
When he most burn'd in heart-wish'd luxury. 
He preach'd pure maid and praised cold chastity. 

'Thus merely with the garment of a Grace 316 
The naked and concealed fiend he cover'd ; 
That the unexperient gave the tempter place, 
Which, like a cherubin, above them hover'd. 
Who, young and simple, would not be so lover'd? 
Ay me ! I fell, and yet do question make 321 

What I should do again for such a sake. 

' O, that infected moisture of his eye, 
O, that false fire which in his cheek so glow'd, 
O, that forced thunder from his heart did fly, 325 
0, that sad breath his spongy lungs bestow'd, 
O, all that borrow'd motion seeming owed. 
Would yet again betray the fore-betray'd, 
And new pervert a reconciled maid 1' 



THE PASSIONATE PILGRIM 



When my love swears that she is made of truth, 
I do believe her, though I know she . '«s, 
That she might think me some untutor'd youth. 
Unskilful in the world's false forgeries, 4 

Thus vainly thinking that she thinks me young, 
Although I know my years be past the best, 
I smiling credit her false-speaking tongue. 
Outfacing faults in love with love's ill rest. 
But wherefore says my love that she is young? 
And wherefore say not I that I am old ? 10 

O, love's best habit is a soothing tongue. 
And age, in love, loves not to have years told, 
Therefore I'll lie with love, and love with me, 
Since that our faults in love thus smother'd be. 



Two loves I have, of comfort and despair. 
That like two spirits do suggest me still; 
My better angel is a man right fair, 
My worser spirit a woman colour'd ill. 
To win me soon to hell, my female evil 5 

Tempteth my better angel from my side. 
And would corrupt my saint to be a devil, 
Wooing his purity with her fair pride. 
And whether that my angel be turn'd fiend. 
Suspect I may, yet not directly tell ; 10 

For being both to me, both to each friend, 
I guess one angel in another's hell ; 
The truth I shall not know, but live in doubt, 
Till my bad angel fire my good one out. 



Did not the heavenly rhetoric of thine eye, 
'Gainst whom the world could not hold argument, 
Persuade my heart to this false perjury .' 
Vows for thee broke deserve not punishment. 
A woman I forswore ; but I will prove, 5 

Thou being a goddess, I forswore not thee ; 
My vow was earthly, thou a heavenly love ; 
Thy grace being gain'd cures all disgrace in me. 
My vow was breath, and breath a vapour is ; 
Then, thou fair sun, that on this earth doth shine. 
Exhale this vapour vow ; in thee it is ; 11 

If broken, then it is no fault of mine. 
If by me broke, what fool is not so wise 
To break an oath, to win a paradise? 



Sweet Cytherea, sitting by a brook 
With young Adonis, lovely, fresh, and green, 
Did court the lad with many a lovely look, 
Such looks as none could look but beauty's queen. 

418 



She told him stories to delight his ear, 5 

She show'd him favours to allure his eye ; 

To win hisheartj^shetouch'd him here and there, 

Touches so soft still conquer chastity. 

But whether unripe years did want conceit. 

Or he refused to take her figured proffer, 10 

The tender nibbler would not touch the bait, 

But smile and jest at every gentle offer; 

Then fell she on her back, fair queen, and 
toward ; 

He rose and ran away ; ah, fool too froward. 



If love make me forsworn, how shall I swear to 

love? 
O never faith could hold, if not to beauty vowed ; 
Though to myself forsworn, to thee I'll constant 

prove ; 
Those thoughts, to me like oaks, to thee like osiers 

bowed. 
Study his bias leaves, and makes his book thine 

eyes, 5 

Where all those pleasures live that art can com- 

prenenci. 
If knowledge be the mark, to know thee shall 

suifice ; 
Well learned is that tongue that well can thee 

commend ; 
All ignorant that soul that sees thee without 

wonder ; 
Which is to me some praise, that I thy parts ad- 
mire ; 10 
Thine eye Jove's lightning seems, thy voice his 

dreadful thunder. 
Which, not to anger bent, is music and sweet fire. 
Celestial as thou art, O do not love that wrong, 
To sing heaven's praise with such an earthly 

tongue. 

e 

Scarce had the sun dried up the dewy morn, 
And scarce the herd gone to the hedge for shade, 
When Cytherea, all in love forlorn, 
A longing tarriance for Adonis made 
Under an osier growing by a brook, 5 

A brook where Adon used to cool his spleen ; 
Hot was the day ; she hotter that did ^ook 
Fo- his approach, that often there had been. 
Anon he comes, and throws his mantle by, 9 
And stood stark naked on the brook's green brim; 
The sun look'd on the world with glorious eye, 
Yet not so wistly as this queen on him. 

He, spying her, bounced in, whereas he stood ; 

'O Jove,' quoth she, 'why was not I a flood 1' 



THE PASSIONATE PILGRIM 



419 



Fair is my love, but not so fair as fickle, 
Mild as a dove, but neither true nor trusty. 
Brighter than glass and yet, as glass is, brittle, 
Softer than wax and yet as iron rusty ; 
A lily pale, with damask dye to grace her, 5 
None fairer, nor none falser to deface her. 

Her lips to mine how often hath she joined, 
Between each kiss her oaths of true love swearing ! 
How many tales to please me hath she coined. 
Dreading my love, the loss thereof still fearing ! 
Yet in the midst of all her pure pretestings. 
Her faith, her oaths, her tears, and all were 
jestings. 12 

She burn'd with love, as straw with fire flameth ; 
She burn'd out love, as soon as straw out-burneth ; 
She framed the love, and yet she foil'd the iraming ; 
She bade love last, and yet she fell a-turning. 16 

Was this a lover, or a lecher whether ? 

Bad in the best, though excellent in neither. 



If music and sweet poetry agree, 
As they must needs, the sister and the brother, 
Then must the love be great 'twist thee and me, 
Because thou lovest the one and I the other. 
Dowland to thee is dear, whose heavenly touch 
Upon the lute doth ravish human sense ; 6 

Spenser to me, whose deep conceit is such 
As passing all conceit needs no defence. 
Thou lovest to hear the sweet melodious sound 
That Phoebus' lute, the queen of music, makes; 
And I in deep delight am chiefly drown'd 11 

When as himself to singing he betakes. 

One god is god of both, as poets feign ; 

One knight loves both, and both in thee remain. 



Fair was the morn when the fair queen of love, 
***** 
Paler for sorrow than her milk-white dove, 
For Aden's sake, a youngster proud and wild ; 
Her stand she takes upon a steep up-hill ; 5 

Anon Adonis comes with horn and hounds ; 
She, silly queen, with more than love's good will. 
Forbade the boy he should not pass those grounds ; 
'Once,' quoth she, 'did I see a fair sweet youth 
Here in these brakes deep-wounded with a boar, 
Deep in the thigh, a spectacle of ruth ! 11 

See, in my thigh,' quoth she, ' here was the sore.' 
She showed hers ; he saw more wounds than one, 
And blushing fled, and left her all alone. 

lO 

Sweet rose, fair flower, untimely pluck'd, soon 

vaded, 
Pluck'd in the bud and vaded in the spring ! 
Bright orient pearl, alack, too timely shaded ! 
Fair creature, kill'd too soon by death's sharp 
sting ! 
Like a green plum that hangs upon a tree, 5 
And falls through wind before the fall should be. 

I weep for thee and yet no cause I have ; 
For why thou left'st me nothing in thy will ; 
And yet thou left'st me more than I did crave ; 
For why I craved nothing of thee still ; 10 



O yes, dear friend, I pardon crave of thee, 
Thy discontent thou didst bequeath to me. 

11 

Venus, with young Adonis sitting by her 
Under a myrtle shade, began to woo him ; 
She told the youngling how god Mars did try her, 
And as he fell to her, so fell she to him. 
'Even thus,' quoth she, 'the warlike god em- 
braced me,' 5 
And then she clipp'd Adonis in her arms ; 
' Even thus,' quoth she, ' the warlike god unlaced 

me,' 
As if the boy should use like loving charms ; 
' Even thus,' quoth she, ' he seized on my lips,' 
And with her lips on his did act the seizure ; 10 
And as she fetched breath, away he skips. 
And would not take her meaning nor her pleasure. 
Ah, that I had my lady at this bay, 
To kiss and clip me till I run away ! 

12 

Crabbed age and youth cannot live together ; 
Youth is full of pleasance, age is full of care ; 
Youth like summer morn, age like winter wea- 
ther; 
Youth like summer brave, age like winter bare. 
Youth is full of sport, age's breath is short ; 6 

Youth is nimble, age is lame ; 
Youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold ; 

Youth is wild, and age is tame. 
Age, I do abhor thee ; youth, I do adore thee ; 

0, my love, my love is young ! 10 

Age, I do defy thee ; O, sweet shepherd, hie thee, 

For methinks thou stay'st too long. 

13 

Beauty is but a vain and doubtful good ; 

A shining gloss that vadeth suddenly ; 

A flower that dies when first it 'gins to bud ; 

A brittle glass that's broken presently ; 
A doubtful good, a gloss, a glass, a flower, 5 
Lost, vaded, broken, dead within an hour. 

And as goods lost are seld or never found. 
As vaded gloss no rubbing will refresh, 
As flowers dead lie wither'd on the ground. 
As broken glass no cement can redress, 10 

So beauty blemish'd once's for ever lost, 
In spite of physic, painting, pain, and cost. 

14 

Good-night, good rest. Ah, neither be my share ; 
She bade good night that kept my rest away; 
And daff''d me to a cabin hang'd with care, 
To descant on the doubts of my decay. 

'Farewell,' quoth she, 'and come again to-mor- 
row;' 

Fare well I could not, for I supp'd with sorrow 

Yet at my parting sweetly did she smile. 
In scorn or friendship, nill I construe whether; 
'T may be, she joy'd to jest at my exile, 9 

'T may be, again to make me wander thither; 
' Wander,' a word for shadows like myself. 
As take the pain, but cannot pluck the pelf.

Lord, how mine eyes throw gazes to the east ! 

My heart doth charge the watch; the morning 
rise 

Doth cite each moving sense from idle rest. 

Not daring trust the office of mine eyes, 4 

While Philomela sits and sings, I sit and mark. 
And wish her lays were tuned like the lark ; 

For she doth welcome daylight with her ditty, 
And drives away dark dreaming night ; 
The night so pack'd, I post unto my pretty; 9 
Heart hath his hope and eyes their wished sight; 
Sorrow changed to solace, and solace mix'd 

with sorrow ; 
For why, she sigh'd, and bade me come to- 
morrow. 

Were I with her, the night would post too soon ; 
But now are minutes added to the hours ; 14 

To spite me now, each minute seems a moon ; 
Yet not for me, shine sun to succour flowers! 
Pack night, peep day ; good day, of night now 

borrow ; 
Short, night, to-night, and length thyself to- 
morrow. 

16 
It was a lording's daughter, the fairest one of 

three. 
That liked of her master as well as well might be, 
Till looking on an Englishman, the fair'st that 

eye could see, 
Her fancy fell a-turning. 
Long was the combat doubtful that love with love 

did fight ; 5 

To leave the master loveless, or kill the gallant 

knight ; 
To put in practice either, alas, it was a spite 

Unto the silly damsel ! 
But one must be refused ; more mickle was the 

pain 
That nothing could be used to turn them both to 

gain, 10 

For of the two the trusty knight was wounded 

with disdain ; 
Alas, she could not help it I 
Thus art with arms contending was victor of the 

day, 
Which by a gift of learning did bear the maid 

away; 
Then, lullaby, the learned man hath got the lady 

gay ; 15 

For now my song is ended. 

ir 

On a day, alack the day ! 
Love, whose month was ever May, 
Spied a blossom passing fair, 
Playing in the wanton air ; 
Through the velvet leaves the wind 5 

All unseen 'gan passage find ; 
That the lover, sick to death, 
Wish'd himself the heaven's breath. 
Air,' quoth he, 'thy cheeks may blow; 
Air, would I might triumph so ! 10 

But, alas ! my hand hath sworn 
Ne'er to pluck thee from thy thorn ; 
Vow, alack ! for youth unmeet ; 
Youth, so apt to pluck a sweet. 



Thou for whom Jove would swear 15 

Juno but an Ethiope were ; 
And deny himself for Jove, 
Turning mortal for thy love.' 

18 

My flocks feed not, 
My ewes breed not. 
My rams speed not ; 

All is amiss ; 
Love's denying, $ 

Faith's defying, 
Heart's renying 

Causer of this. 
All my merry jigs are quite forgot, 
All my lady's love is lost, God wot ; 10 

Where her faith was firmly fix'd in love, 
There a nay is placed without remove. 
One silly cross 
Wrought all my loss ; 

O frowning Fortune, cursed, fickle dame I 15 
For now I see 
Inconstancy 

More in women than in men remain. 

In black mourn I, 

All fears scorn I, 20 

Love hath forlorn me, 

Living in thrall ; 
Heart is bleeding, 
All help needing, 
O cruel speeding, 26 

Fraughted with gall. 
My shepherd's pipe can sound no deal ; 
My wether's bell rings doleful knell; 
My curtal dog, that wont to have play'd. 
Plays not at all, but seems afraid ; 30 

My sighs so deep 
Procure to weep, 

In howling wise, to see my doleful plight. 
How sighs resound 
Through heartless ground, 35 

Like a thousand vanquish'd men in bloody fight ! 

Clear wells spring not. 
Sweet birds sing not. 
Green plants bring not 

Forth their dye ; 40 

Herds stand weeping, 
Flocks all sleeping. 
Nymphs back peeping 

Fearfully ; 
All our pleasure known to us poor swains, 45 
All our merry meetings on the plains, 
All our evening sport from us is fled. 
All our love is lost, for Love is dead. 
Farewell, sweet lass. 
Thy like ne'er was 50 

For a sweet content, the cause of all my moan ; 
Poor Corydon 
Must live alone ; 

Other help for him I see that there is none. 

19 

When as thine eye hath chose the dame. 
And stall'd the deer that thou shouldst strike, 
Let reason rule things worthy blame. 
As well as fancy, partial wight ; 

Take counsel of some wiser head, g 

Neither too young nor yet unwed.

And when thou eomest thy tale to tell, 

Bmooth not thy tongue with filed talk, 

Lest she some subtle practice smell, — 

A cripple soon can find a halt ; — 10 

But plainly say thou lovest her well, 

And set thy person forth to sell. 

What though her frowning brows he bent. 

Her cloudy looks will calm ere night ; 

And then too late she will repent 15 

That thus dissembled her delight ; 
And twice desire, ere it be day, 
That which with scorn she put away. 

What though she strive to try her strength, 
And ban and brawl and say thee nay, 20 

Her feeble force will yield at length. 
When craft hath taught her thus to say : 

' Had women been so strong as men. 

In faith, you had not had it then.' 

And to her will frame all thy ways ; 25 

Spare not to spend, and chiefly there 

Where thy desert may merit praise. 

By ringing in thy lady's ear ; 
The strongest castle, tower and town. 
The golden bullet beats it down. 30 

Serve always with assured trust. 

And in thy suit be humble true ; 

Unless thy lady prove unjust. 

Press never thou to choose anew ; 
When time shall serve, be thou not slack 35 
To proffer, though she put thee back. 

The wiles and guiles that women work, 
Dissembled with an outward show. 
The tricks and toys that in them lurk, 
The cock that treads them shall not know. 40 
Have you not heard it said full oft, 
A woman's nay doth stand for nought? 

Think women still to strive with men, 

To sin and never for to saint ; 

There is no heaven, by holy then, 45 

When time with age shall them attaint. 

Were kisses all the joys in bed. 

One woman would another wed. 

But, soft I enough, — too much, I fear, — 

Lest that my mistress hear my song ; 50 

She will not stick to round me on th' ear, 

To teach my tongue to be so long ; 

Yet will she blush, here be it said. 

To hear her secrets so bewray'd. 

20 

Live with me, and he my love, 
And we will all the pleasures prove 
That hills and valleys, dales and fields, 
And all the craggy mountains yields. 

There will we sit upon the rocks, 5 

And see the shepherds feed their flocks, 
By shallow rivers, by whose falls 
Melodious birds sing madrigals. 



There will I make thee a bed of roses. 

With a thousand fragrant posies, 10 

A cap of flowers and a kirtle 

Embroider'd all with leaves of myrtle. 

A belt of straw and ivy buds, 

With coral clasps and amber studs ; 

And if these pleasures may thee move, 15 

Then live with me and be my love. 

Love's Answer. 
If that the world and love were young, 
And truth in every shepherd's tongue. 
These pretty pleasures might me move 
To live with thee and be thy love. 20 

SI 

As it fell upon a day 

In the merry month of May, 

Sitting in a pleasant shade 

Which a grove of myrtles made, 

Beasts did leap and birds did sing, 5 

Trees did grow and plants did spring; 

Every thing did banish moan. 

Save the nightingale alone ; 

She, poor bird, as all forlorn, 

Lean'd her breast up-till a thorn, 10 

And there sung the dolefull'st ditty, 

That to hear it was great pity ; 

'Fie, fie, fie,' now would she cry; 

' Tereu, tereu !' by and by ; 

That to hear her so complain, 15 

Scarce I could from tears refrain; 

For her griefs so lively shown 

Made me think upon mine own. 

Ah, thought I, thou mourn'st in vain! 

None takes pity on thy pain ; 20 

Senseless trees they cannot hear thee; 

Ruthless beasts they will not cheer thee ; 

King Pandion he is dead ; 

All thy friends are lapp'd in lead ; 

All thy fellow birds do sing, 25 

Careless of thy sorrowing. 

Even so, poor bird, like thee. 

None alive will pity me. 

WhUst as fickle Fortune smiled, 

Thou and I were both beguiled. 30 

Every one that flatters thee 
Is no friend in misery. 
Words are easy, like the wind; 
Faithful friends are hard to find ; 
Every man will be thy friend 35 

Whilst thou hast wherewith to spend; 
But if store of crowns be scant, 
No man will supply thy want. 
If that one be prodigal. 
Bountiful they will him call, 40 

And with such-like flattering, 
'Pity but he were a king;' 
If he be addict to vice. 
Quickly him they will entice ; 
If to women he be bent, 45 

They have at commandment; 
But if Fortune once do frown, 
Then farewell his great renown ; 
They that fawn'd on him before 
Use his company no more. 5G

THE PHCENIX AND TURTLE 



He that is thy friend indeed, 
He wUl help thee in thy need ; 
If thou sorrow, be will weep; 
If thou wake, he cannot sleep ; 



Thus of every grief in heart 
He with thee doth bear a part. 
These are certain signs to know 
Faithful friend from flattering foe. 



THE PHCENIX AND TURTLE 



Let the bird of loudest lay, 

On the sole Arabian tree, 

Herald sad and trumpet be, 

To whose sound chaste wings obey. 

But thou shrieking harbinger. 
Foul precurrer of the iiend, 
Augur of the fever's end, 
To this troop come thou not near ! 

From this session interdict 
Every fowl of tyrant wing. 
Save the eagle, feather'd king ; 
Keep the obsequy so strict. 

Let the priest in surplice white, 
That defunctive music can. 
Be the death-divining swan. 
Lest the requiem lack his right.

And thou treble-dated crow, 

That thy sable gender makest 

With the breath thou givest and takest, 

'Mongst our mourners shalt thou go. 20 

Here the anthem doth commence : 
Love and constancy is dead ; 
Phcenix and the turtle fled 
In a mutual flame from hence. 

So they loved, as love in twain 25 

Had the essence but in one ; 
Two distincts, division none ; 
Number there in love was slain. 

Hearts remote, yet not asunder ; 
Distance, and no space was seen 30 

'Twixt the turtle and his queen ; 
But in them it were a wonder. 

feu between them love did shine, 
That the turtle saw his right 



Flaming in the phoenix' sight ; 
Either was the other's mine. 

Property was thus appalled, 
That the self was not the same ; 
Single nature's double name 
Neither two nor one was called. 

Reason, in itself confounded, 
Saw division grow together. 
To themselves yet either neither. 
Simple were so well compounded j 

That it cried. How true a twain 
Seemeth this concordant one ! 
Love hath reason, reason none. 
If what parts can so remain. 

Whereupon it made this threne 
To the phoenix and the dove, 
Co-supremes and stars of love. 
As chorus to their tragic scene. 

THRENOS. 
Beauty, truth, and rarity, 
Grace in all simplicity. 
Here enclosed in cinders lie. 

Death is now the phoenix' nest ; 
And the turtle's loyal breast 
To eternity doth rest, 

Leaving no posterity ; 
'Twas not their infirmity. 
It was married chastity. 

Truth may seem, but cannot be 
Beauty brag, but 'tis not she ; 
Truth and beauty buried be. 

To this urn let those repair 

That are either true or fair ; 

For these dead birds sigh a prayer.
